Accuracy of CDC 6600/7600 Fortran library functions

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5206587· OSTI ID:5206587

This report documents the results of tests of accuracy performed on Fortran library functions corresponding to version 3.0 (PSR 326) of the Fortran Extended Library and version V327 of the CDC 6600 SCOPE 3.3 operating system; version 4.6 (PSR 439) of the Fortran Extended Library and the NOS operating system; and version 4.6 (level 420) of the Fortran extended Library and level 221C of the 7000 SCOPE 2.1 operating system. It is emphasized that corresponding routines of the same name in different libraries may--and often do--yield different results, so that those reported apply only to the particular system on which they were obtained. They are not intended as endorsements or criticisms of the CDC routines tested, but as information for users of Sandia Laboratories 6600/7600 computer systems. 1 figure, 11 tables.
