Annex G
(normative)
Numerics
1
The Numerics Annex specifies
2
features for complex arithmetic, including complex
I/O;
3
a mode (“strict mode”), in which the
predefined arithmetic operations of floating point and fixed point types
and the functions and operations of various predefined packages have
to provide guaranteed accuracy or conform to other numeric performance
requirements, which the Numerics Annex also specifies;
4
a mode (“relaxed mode”), in which no
accuracy or other numeric performance requirements need be satisfied,
as for implementations not conforming to the Numerics Annex;
5/2
{
AI95-00296-01}
models of floating point and fixed point arithmetic on which the accuracy
requirements of strict mode are based;
and6/2
{
AI95-00296-01}
the definitions of the model-oriented attributes of floating point types
that apply in the strict mode
; and.6.1/2
{
AI95-00296-01}
features for the manipulation of real and complex
vectors and matrices. Implementation Advice
7/3
{
AI05-0229-1}
If Fortran (respectively, C) is widely supported in the target environment,
implementations supporting the Numerics Annex should provide the child
package Interfaces.Fortran (respectively, Interfaces.C) specified in
Annex B and should support a
convention_identifier
of Fortran (respectively, C)
for in
the
Convention aspect interfacing
pragmas (see
Annex B), thus allowing Ada
programs to interface with programs written in that language.
7.a.1/2
Implementation Advice:
If Fortran (respectively, C) is supported
in the target environment, then interfacing to Fortran (respectively,
C) should be supported as specified in Annex B.
