| | Doing It Fast, fixed point arithmetic techniques and fast 3d transforms |
 | | For example, you might have a table of sines in 2.30 binary fixed point format (in a binary format the numbers are the number of bits, not the number of digits) that you want to multiply by numbers in an 18.14 format. |  | | When we want to use fixed point arithmetic in a program we have to decide what format to use and how to implement it within the programming language we are using. |  | | Floating point arithmetic is easy to use and it comes closer to working the way we expect arithmetic to work than any other kind of arithmetic we can use in programs. |

| | Hexapedia - Fixed point combinator |
 | | A 'fixed point' of a function is a value left 'fixed' by that function; for example, 0 and 1 are fixed points of the squaring function. |  | | A fixed point combinator is a function which computes fixed points of other functions. |  | | In these formalizations, it is possible to produce a function, often denoted Y, which computes a fixed point of any function it is given. |

| | Fixed-point arithmetic |
 | | In computing, a fixed-point number representation is a real data type for a number that has a fixed number of digits after the decimal (or binary or hexadecimal) point. |  | | Most floating point representations in computers use base 2 values, which cannot exactly represent most fractions that are easily represented in base 10. |  | | For example, a fixed-point number with 4 digits after the decimal point could be used to store numbers such as 1.3467, 281243.3234 and 0.1000, but would round 1.0301789 to 1.0302 and 0.0000654 to 0.0001. |

| | The Brouwer-Kakutani Fixed Point Theorem |
 | | Newton's Method is perhaps the most famous application of the Fixed Point Theorem, and it is very easy to write an algorithm (computer program) to implement it. |  | | Once the idea of fixed points is understood, it is amusing to apply the idea to "nonmathematical" maps. |  | | Depending on the calculator design, the number of states might be the same as the number of distinct values that can be displayed. |

 | | Fixed point math is something that has applications in many, many areas of computer graphics. |  | | The problem is, the computer sees each number as having a addition eight zeros on it. |  | | The problem with division is basically the same as the problem with multiplication: An unwanted factor crops up in the calculation. |

| | An Introduction to Fixed Point Math |
 | | When a fixed point value is positive, this adds one- half away from 0. |  | | Rounding to the nearest value, which is what we often associate with rounding (this is what the C language does), is easy primarily because of the 2's complement encoding. |  | | Decoding a negative number takes a little bit of thought (you have to do the complement and add one), and the magnitude of a negative number is inversely proportional to the magnitude of its binary representation: -1 = 0xFFFFFFFF but -2147483648 = 0x80000000. |
