13: 24.19 Methods of Computation
For number-theoretic applications it is important to compute B 2 n ( mod p ) for 2 n p 3 ; in particular to find the irregular pairs ( 2 n , p ) for which B 2 n 0 ( mod p ) . …
14: 27.11 Asymptotic Formulas: Partial Sums
The behavior of a number-theoretic function f ( n ) for large n is often difficult to determine because the function values can fluctuate considerably as n increases. …

    17: 19.36 Methods of Computation
    If (19.25.9) is used when 0 k 2 1 , cancellations may lead to loss of significant figures when k 2 is close to 1 and ϕ > π / 4 , as shown by Reinsch and Raab (2000). … E ( ϕ , k ) can be evaluated by using (19.25.7), and R D by using (19.21.10), but cancellations may become significant. … Near these points there will be loss of significant figures in the computation of R J or R D . … This method loses significant figures in ρ if α 2 and k 2 are nearly equal unless they are given exact values—as they can be for tables. … For computation of Legendre’s integral of the third kind, see Abramowitz and Stegun (1964, §§17.7 and 17.8, Examples 15, 17, 19, and 20). …
    18: 3.1 Arithmetics and Error Measures
    A nonzero normalized binary floating-point machine number x is represented as …where s is equal to 1 or 0 , each b j , j 1 , is either 0 or 1 , b 1 is the most significant bit, p ( ) is the number of significant bits b j , b p 1 is the least significant bit, E is an integer called the exponent, b 0 . b 1 b 2 b p 1 is the significand, and f = . b 1 b 2 b p 1 is the fractional part. …

    For given values of E min , E max , and p , the format width in bits N of a computer word is the total number of bits: the sign (one bit), the significant bits b 1 , b 2 , , b p 1 ( p 1 bits), and the bits allocated to the exponent (the remaining N p bits). …

    19: 19.38 Approximations
    The accuracy is controlled by the number of terms retained in the approximation; for real variables the number of significant figures appears to be roughly twice the number of terms retained, perhaps even for ϕ near π / 2 with the improvements made in the 1970 reference. …
