GAMS Module SPARA in PARANOIA


SPARA

 
A Fortran version of the original Basic program PARANOIA.B, which determines
characteristics of a computer's floating point arithmetic, such as its radix,
precision, type of rounding, and underflow/overflow thresholds, and which
points out flaws, serious defects, and failures. Its diagnostic capabilities
are designed to go beyond those of an earlier program called MACHAR.
 
Classes  :  A3 . Real arithmetic
            R1 . Machine-dependent constants
            R2 . Error checking (e.g., check monotonicity)
 
Type     : Fortran software in PARANOIA collection.
Access   : Some uses prohibited. Portable.
Precision: Single.
 
Details  : Fullsource
Sites    : (1) NETLIB
 

Implementation of SPARA from PARANOIA on NETLIB

 
NETLIB:    Public access repository, The University of Tennessee at
           Knoxville and Bell Laboratories
 
Precision: Single. (Double: DPARA)
 
You may access components from NETLIB outside GAMS as follows.
