Review text

It is well known that contrary to operations with integer arithmetic operations with real numbers (real operands) give some errors due to incorrect representation of the operands and methods of fulfilment of arithmetic operations. A method of operational analysis of errors of the real arithmetic which is oriented on an architecture of IBM PC is proposed.
