754
IEEE 754 defines binary floating-point arithmetic.
- Even
- Composite
Where 754 fits
Why 754 is special
It is why 0.1 plus 0.2 does not equal 0.3 in most programming languages: a tenth has no exact representation in binary, exactly as a third has none in decimal.

Technology & computing
IEEE 754 specifies binary floating-point formats, rounding rules, and special values including signed zeros, infinities and NaN. Values such as 0.1 are not exactly representable, so arithmetic on them accumulates small errors.
