Numerical format
The standard IEEE 754 (1985) for binary floating point arithmetic is imple-
mented in "double precision" (64 Bit) in the software.
Rounding off process
Measured values and results are rounded off symmetrically (commercial
rounding). In so doing, 1, 2, 3, 4 are always rounded down and 5, 6, 7,
8, 9 always rounded up.
Examples
2.33 yields 2.3
2.35 yields 2.4
2.47 yields 2.5
-2.38 yields -2.4
-2.45 yields -2.5
Statistics
The mean value, absolute and relative standard deviation of results R are
calculated using the following formula:
