newRPL: inexact numbers
Another idea:
The mpdecimal library on which newRPL is based, has a flag that indicates when an operation result is inexact. This could be used to keep a flag within each number that would specify whether it's an exact number or an inexact result. For example: 2 INV --> 0.5 (exact) 3 INV --> 0.33333 (inexact) This flag can be carried over through the mathematical operations. to indicate whether a result obtained has any error from calculations or if the result is exact. Could this be something worth implementing? |
