摘要:
A method of an aspect includes receiving a floating point round-off amount determination instruction. The instruction indicates a source of one or more floating point data elements, indicates a number of fraction bits after a radix point, and indicates a destination storage location. A result including one or more result floating point data elements is stored in the destination storage location in response to the floating point round-off amount determination instruction. Each of the one or more result floating point data elements includes a difference between a corresponding floating point data element of the source in a corresponding position, and a rounded version of the corresponding floating point data element of the source that has been rounded to the indicated number of the fraction bits. Other methods, apparatus, systems, and instructions are disclosed.
