ABSTRACT:
Floating point numbers and other values are represented in a "delimited" representation in which all numbers, including those which would in the IEEE Std. 754 representation, be in the de-normalized format, are in a format which is normalized with an implicit most significant digit having the value "one." For numbers which would, in the IEEE Std. 754 representation, be in the de-normalized format, in the delimited representation
