nfloat.h – packed floating-point numbers with n-word precision

This module provides binary floating-point numbers in a flat representation with precision in small fixed multiples of the word size (64, 128, 192, 256, … bits on a 64-bit machine). The exponent range is close to a full word. A number with \(n\)-limb precision is stored as \(n+2\) contiguous limbs as follows:

exponent limb

sign limb

mantissa[0]

…

mantissa[n-1]

For normal (nonzero and finite) values \(x\), the most significant limb of the mantissa is always normalised to have its most significant bit set, and the exponent \(e\) is the unique integer such that \(|x| \in [0.5, 1) \cdot 2^e\). Special (zero or nonfinite) values are encoded using special values of the exponent field, with junk data in the mantissa.

This type has the advantage that floating-point numbers with the same precision can be packed together tightly in vectors and created on the stack without heap allocation. The precision of an nfloat context object and its elements cannot be changed; to switch precision, one must convert to a different context object. For higher precision than supported by nfloat and for calculations that require fine-grained precision adjustments, one should use arf_t instead.

The focus is on fast calculation, not bitwise-defined results. Atomic operations typically give slightly worse than correct rounding, e.g. with 1-2 ulp error. The rounding is not guaranteed to be identical on 64-bit and 32-bit machines. Planned features include:

• Directed rounding modes

• Support for special values (partially implemented)

• Optional (but slower) IEEE 754-like semantics

• Complex and ball types

This module is designed to use the generics interface. As such, the domain is represented by a gr_ctx_t context object, methods return status flags (GR_SUCCESS, GR_UNABLE, GR_DOMAIN), and one can use generic structures such as gr_poly_t for polynomials and gr_mat_t for matrices.

Types, macros and constants

NFLOAT_MIN_LIMBS

NFLOAT_MAX_LIMBS

The number of limbs \(n\) permitted as precision. The current limits are are \(1 \le n \le 66\) on a 64-bit machine and \(1 \le n \le 132\) on a 32-bit machine, permitting precision up to 4224 bits. The upper limit exists so that elements and temporary buffers are safe to allocate on the stack and so that simple operations like swapping are not too expensive.

type nfloat_ptr

type nfloat_srcptr

Pointer to an nfloat element or vector of elements of any precision. Since this is a void type, one must cast to the correct size before doing pointer arithmetic, e.g. via the GR_ENTRY macro.

type nfloat64_struct

type nfloat128_struct

type nfloat192_struct

type nfloat256_struct

type nfloat384_struct

type nfloat512_struct

type nfloat1024_struct

type nfloat2048_struct

type nfloat4096_struct

type nfloat64_t

type nfloat128_t

type nfloat192_t

type nfloat256_t

type nfloat384_t

type nfloat512_t

type nfloat1024_t

type nfloat2048_t

type nfloat4096_t

For convenience we define types of the correct structure size for some common levels of bit precision. An nfloatX_t is defined as a length-one array of nfloatX_struct, permitting it to be passed by reference.

Sample usage:

gr_ctx_t ctx;
nfloat256_t x, y;

nfloat_ctx_init(ctx, 256, 0);   /* precision must match the type */
gr_init(x, ctx);
gr_init(y, ctx);

gr_ctx_println(ctx);

GR_MUST_SUCCEED(gr_set_ui(x, 5, ctx));
GR_MUST_SUCCEED(gr_set_ui(y, 7, ctx));
GR_MUST_SUCCEED(gr_div(x, x, y, ctx));
GR_MUST_SUCCEED(gr_println(x, ctx));

gr_clear(x, ctx);
gr_clear(y, ctx);
gr_ctx_clear(ctx);

Context objects

int nfloat_ctx_init(gr_ctx_t ctx, slong prec, int flags)

Initializes ctx to represent a domain of floating-point numbers with bit precision prec rounded up to a full word (for example, prec = 53 actually creates a domain with 64-bit precision).

Returns GR_UNABLE without initializing the context object if the given precision is too large to be supported, otherwise returns GR_SUCCESS.

Admissible flags are listed below.

NFLOAT_ALLOW_UNDERFLOW

By default, operations that would underflow the exponent range output a garbage value and return GR_UNABLE. Setting this flag allows such operations to output zero and return GR_SUCCESS instead.

NFLOAT_ALLOW_INF

Allow creation of infinities. By default, operations that would overflow the exponent range output a garbage value and return GR_UNABLE or GR_DOMAIN. Setting this flag allows such operations to output an infinity and return GR_SUCCESS instead.

NFLOAT_ALLOW_NAN

Allow creation of NaNs. By default, operations that are meaningless output a garbage value and return GR_UNABLE or GR_DOMAIN. Setting this flag allows such operations to output NaN and return GR_SUCCESS instead.

Infinities and NaNs are disabled by default to improve performance, as this allows certain functions to skip checks for such values.

Packed fixed-point arithmetic

A fixed-point number in the range \((-1,1)\) with \(n\)-limb precision is represented as \(n+1\) contiguous limbs as follows:

sign limb

mantissa[0]

…

mantissa[n-1]

In the following method signatures, nlimbs always refers to the precision n while the storage is nlimbs + 1.

There is no overflow handling: all methods assume that inputs have been scaled to a range \([-\varepsilon,\varepsilon]\) so that all intermediate results (including rounding errors) lie in \((-1,1)\).

void _nfixed_mat_mul(nn_ptr C, nn_srcptr A, nn_srcptr B, slong m, slong n, slong p, slong nlimbs)

Matrix multiplication using various algorithms. The strassen variant takes a cutoff parameter specifying where to switch from basecase multiplication to Strassen multiplication.
