I believe "proper subset" is the more common form of "strict subset".
<br>
<br>
Page 3, both tables: emax formula: right column: has 2x instead of 2**x
<br>
That is, the 'x' should be a superscript.
<br>
<br>
Page 3, both tables: emin formula: 3-emax would be better. Some
<br>
people interpret -emax+3 as -(emax+3). The same change would apply to
<br>
other uses of -emax+3 in the document.
<br>
<br>
Page 6, line 36: Should DEC_EVAL_METHOD 0 have words similar to 1 (eg,
<br>
subset of values of _Decimal32).
<br>
<br>
Page 8, line 3, 20: Is that absolute value symbol or ceiling symbol?
<br>
<br>
Page 8, line 8: Is that absolute value symbol or floor symbol?
<br>
<br>
Page 8, line 20: Is emin-1 supposed to be the exponent of 2? Since
<br>
log(a**b) is b*log(a), it might be clearer to use: ceiling((emin-1)*log10(2)))
<br>
<br>
Page 8, line 32, 36: Is emax supposed to be an exponent? Is -p supposed
<br>
to be an exponent?
<br>
<br>
Page 8, line 43: Is 1-p supposed to be an exponent?
<br>
Also, add "normalized" between "least" and "value".
<br>
<br>
Page 8: Need to add after FLT*MAX, a new section: FLT*_NORM_MAX (to be
<br>
consistent with C2X).
<br>
<br>
Page 9: line 1: Is emin-1 supposed to be an exponent?
<br>
<br>
Page 9: line 7: Is emin-p supposed to be an exponent?
<br>
<br>
Page 12, line 14: Would it be better to replace (in C2X) "_Decimal32,
<br>
_Decimal64, _Decimal128" with "_DecimalN, where N is multiple of 32".
<br>
<br>
Page 18, line 3: Should "M<=N" be "M<n"? <br="">
<br>
Page 29, line 42: Should *exp be a superscript?
<br>
<br>
Page 29, line 44: Should exp be a superscript?
<br>
<br>
Several places: "applys" should be "applies".
<br>
<br>
Page 32, line 32: "delare" should be "declare".
