These three terms pop up and I cannot pick the consistency.
Which is which?
I thought that the collective term was rounding modes.
Mind you, IEEE 754 uses another (related but with even more letters) and
calls all of these by the name "rounding direction attributes":
round towards zero
and
round towards infinity
and
round towards -infinity
and
round to nearest ties towards WHATEVER
Thanks - Damian
