       Hi Jim,

> Note that the first table (F.3 #1) is labeled “Operation binding” and the second table (F.3 #20) is unlabeled. The C functions in the second table correspond to the recommended mathematical operations in IEC 60559 but aren’t strictly bound to them because the C functions are not required to correctly round or to honor rounding direction modes.

even better, I suggest to label the two tables, and then change to "functions
not listed in Table F.3.1" since the caption of the table is not very visible
(I had not seen it).

Best regards,
Paul
