Floating-point format with gradual underflow


From Coq Require Import ZArith Reals Psatz.

Require Import Zaux Raux Defs Round_pred Generic_fmt Float_prop FLX FIX Ulp Round_NE.

Section RND_FLT.

Variable beta : radix.

Notation bpow e := (bpow beta e).

Variable emin prec : Z.

Context { prec_gt_0_ : Prec_gt_0 prec }.

Inductive FLT_format (x : R) : Prop :=
  FLT_spec (f : float beta) :
    x = F2R f → (Z.abs (Fnum f) < Zpower beta prec)%Z →
    (emin ≤ Fexp f)%Z → FLT_format x.

Definition FLT_exp e := Z.max (e - prec) emin.

Properties of the FLT format
FLT is a nice format: it has a monotone exponent...
and it allows a rounding to nearest, ties to even.
Global Instance exists_NE_FLT :
  (Z.even beta = false ∨ (1 < prec)%Z) →
  Exists_NE beta FLT_exp.
