about FLOATING POINT ARITHMETIC ------------------------------arithmetic operations on floating point numbers consist of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division the operations are done with algorithms similar to those used on sign magnitude integers (because of the similarity of representation) -example, only add numbers of the same sign. If the numbers are of opposite sign, must do subtraction.
