thank you,
is there no way to use the other rounding modes given by IEEE 754, in my
case towards negative infinity?
but more important to me is to get rid of the signed
zero.
so i guess, i have to use the
workaround...
regards
Sam
I think the expected behavior is the IEEE 754 round-to-nearest rule, which I *think* says that if two equally good choices exist, the one closer to positive infinity will be taken.
One classic workaround is to take absolute value, round, then restore the sign...
