11214152Sed// with the IEEE-754 default rounding (to nearest, ties to even).
12214152Sed//
13214152Sed// For simplicity, this implementation currently flushes denormals to zero.
14214152Sed// It should be a fairly straightforward exercise to implement gradual
15214152Sed// underflow with correct rounding.
