Qué (quién) es fixed-point - definición

Fixed Point; Fixed-point; Fixed points; Fixed point (disambiguation)

fixed-point         
<programming> A number representation scheme where a number, F is represented by an integer I such that F=I*R^-P, where R is the (assumed) radix of the representation and P is the (fixed) number of digits after the radix point. On computers with no floating-point unit, fixed-point calculations are significantly faster than floating-point as all the operations are basically integer operations. Fixed-point representation also has the advantage of having uniform density, i.e., the smallest resolvable difference of the representation is R^-P throughout the representable range, in contrast to floating-point representations. For example, in PL/I, FIXED data has both a precision and a scale-factor (P above). So a number declared as 'FIXED DECIMAL(7,2)' has a precision of seven and a scale-factor of two, indicating five integer and two fractional decimal digits. The smallest difference between numbers will be 0.01. (2006-11-15)
fixed point         
¦ noun
1. Physics a well-defined reproducible temperature which can be used as a reference point, e.g. one defined by a change of phase.
2. [as modifier] Computing denoting a mode of representing a number by a single sequence of digits whose values depend on their location relative to a predetermined radix point.
fixed point         
<mathematics> The fixed point of a function, f is any value, x for which f x = x. A function may have any number of fixed points from none (e.g. f x = x+1) to infinitely many (e.g. f x = x). The fixed point combinator, written as either "fix" or "Y" will return the fixed point of a function. See also least fixed point. (1995-04-13)
