||
Known bugs: | ||
|
||
* The overflow/underflow exceptions may be badly handled in some functions; | ||
specially when the intermediary internal results have exponent which | ||
exceeds the hardware limit (2^30 for a 32 bits CPU, and 2^62 for a 64 bits | ||
CPU) or the exact result is close to an overflow/underflow threshold. | ||
|
||
* Under Linux/x86 with the traditional FPU, some functions do not work | ||
if the FPU rounding precision has been changed to single (this is a | ||
bad practice and should be useless, but one never knows what other | ||
software will do). | ||
|
||
* Some functions do not use MPFR_SAVE_EXPO_* macros, thus do not behave | ||
correctly in a reduced exponent range. | ||
|
||
* Function hypot gives incorrect result when on the one hand the difference | ||
between parameters' exponents is near 2*MPFR_EMAX_MAX and on the other hand | ||
the output precision or the precision of the parameter with greatest | ||
absolute value is greater than 2*MPFR_EMAX_MAX-4. | ||
|
||
Potential bugs: | ||
|
||
* Possible incorrect results due to internal underflow, which can lead to | ||
a huge loss of accuracy while the error analysis doesn't take that into | ||
account. If the underflow occurs at the last function call (just before | ||
the MPFR_CAN_ROUND), the result should be correct (or MPFR gets into an | ||
infinite loop). TODO: check the code and the error analysis. | ||
|
||
* Possible integer overflows on some machines. | ||
|
||
* Possible bugs with huge precisions (> 2^30). | ||
|
||
* Possible bugs if the chosen exponent range does not allow to represent | ||
the range [1/16, 16]. | ||
|
||
* Possible infinite loop in some functions for particular cases: when | ||
the exact result is an exactly representable number or the middle of | ||
consecutive two such numbers. However for non-algebraic functions, it is | ||
believed that no such case exists, except the well-known cases like cos(0)=1, | ||
exp(0)=1, and so on, and the x^y function when y is an integer or y=1/2^k. | ||
|
||
* The mpfr_set_ld function may be quite slow if the long double type has an | ||
exponent of more than 15 bits. | ||
|
||
* mpfr_set_d may give wrong results on some non-IEEE architectures. | ||
|
||
* Error analysis for some functions may be incorrect (out-of-date due | ||
to modifications in the code?). | ||
|
||
* Possible use of non-portable feature (pre-C99) of the integer division | ||
with negative result. |
