[Cfp-interest 1630] Re: TS3 annex review

[Rajan Bhakta]

My review:

p11 line 27: [6] The quantum exponent of a *floating* constant of decimal 
floating type ...
  Reasoning: Constant can be something other than a floating constant (ex. 
Integer constant cast to a decimal), which may not have a numeric string 
at all. Ex: 'a', 'd' + 5

p12 line 3: ... if either of the second or third operands has decimal 
floating type, the other operand shall ... ->... if the second or third 
operand has decimal floating type, the other one of those operands shall 
...
  Reasoning: "Either of the second on third" followed by "the other 
operand" could be interpreted to mean the first operand.

Subject:        [EXTERNAL] TS3 annex review



Review team,

Thank you for volunteering to help with the review of our updated proposed 
TS3 annex. We’re reviewing the document in preparation for submittal to WG 
14. If WG 14 affirms is earlier decision, the TS3 annex will be added to 
the C2X draft. If not, we plan to include it in an updated TS3. Either 
way, your review is a valuable service to everyone who will be completing, 
publishing, implementing, or using the specification in the future.

Look for all sorts of errors, technical and editorial. Send comments to me 
and cc the review team. I’m proposing you complete your review and send 
comments by Monday, June 8.

Here are the assignments (from our meeting minutes):

        X.2 Types - 
        X.3 Characteristics in <float.h> - 
        X.4 Conversions - David H.
        X.5-X.8 Lexical elements, Expressions, Declarations, Identifiers 
in standard headers - Rajan
        X.9, X.10 Complex, Floating-point environment - Damian
        X.11 (X.11.1, X.11.2) Math Macros and Function prototypes - Fred
        X.11.3, X.12 Encoding conversion functions, Numeric conversions 
functions in stdlib.h - David H.
        X.13 Type-generic math - Fred

Here are links to PDF and DOCX representations of the document for review
