Primes

• Truncation
  • In numerical representation, truncation toward zero removes fractional digits beyond a precision position rather than choosing the nearest representable value; IEEE 754 names roundTowardZero as one directed rounding mode.

Domain-specific

• Extended-Precision Floating-Point Format
  • IEEE 754 explicitly distinguishes basic and extended formats and specifies floating-point arithmetic, conversions, exceptions, and destination formats; it does not identify “extended precision” with one universal bit layout.
• Multiply–accumulate operation
  • A fused multiply-add computes the infinite-precision product and sum and rounds the final result once; IEEE 754 standardizes that fused behavior.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 3 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
