<p>For functions that are mathematically associative (and possibly commutative), a <span><i>conforming implementation</i></span> may process the <span><i>arguments</i></span> in any manner consistent with associative (and possibly commutative) rearrangement. This does not affect the order in which the <span><i>argument</i></span></p>
|
||
<p><span><i>forms</i></span> are <em>evaluated</em>; for a discussion of evaluation order, see Section 3.1.2.1.2.3 (Function Forms). What is unspecified is only the order in which the <em>parameter values</em> are processed. This implies that <span><i>implementations</i></span> may differ in which automatic <em>coercions</em> are applied; see Section 12.1.1.2 (Contagion in Numeric Operations).</p>
|
||
<p>A <span><i>conforming program</i></span> can control the order of processing explicitly by separating the operations into separate (possibly nested) <span><i>function forms</i></span>, or by writing explicit calls to <span><i>functions</i></span> that perform coercions.</p>

<p>When <span><i>rationals</i></span> and <span><i>floats</i></span> are combined by a numerical function, the <span><i>rational</i></span> is first converted to a <span><i>float</i></span> of the same format. For <span><i>functions</i></span> such as <span><b>+</b></span> that take more than two arguments, it is permitted that part of the operation be carried out exactly using <span><i>rationals</i></span> and the rest be done using floating-point arithmetic.</p>
|
||
<p>When <span><i>rationals</i></span> and <span><i>floats</i></span> are compared by a numerical function, the <span><i>function</i></span> <span><b>rational</b></span> is effectively called to convert the <span><i>float</i></span> to a <span><i>rational</i></span> and then an exact comparison is performed. In the case of <span><i>complex</i></span> numbers, the real and imaginary parts are effectively handled individually.</p>

<p>Computations with <span><i>floats</i></span> are only approximate, although they are described as if the results were mathematically accurate. Two mathematically identical expressions may be computationally different because of errors inherent in the floating-point approximation process. The precision of a <span><i>float</i></span> is not necessarily correlated with the accuracy of that number. For instance, 3.142857142857142857 is a more precise approximation to <em>π</em> than 3.14159, but the latter is more accurate. The precision refers to the number of bits retained in the representation. When an operation combines a <span><i>short float</i></span> with a <span><i>long float</i></span>, the result will be a <span><i>long float</i></span>. Common Lisp functions assume that the accuracy of arguments to them does not exceed their precision. Therefore when two <em>small floats</em> are combined, the result is a <em>small float</em>. Common Lisp functions never convert automatically from a larger size to a smaller one.</p>

<p>Many of the irrational and transcendental functions are multiply defined in the complex domain; for example, there are in general an infinite number of complex values for the logarithm function. In each such case, a <em>principal value</em> must be chosen for the function to return. In general, such values cannot be chosen so as to make the range continuous; lines in the domain called branch cuts must be defined, which in turn define the discontinuities in the range. Common Lisp defines the branch cuts, <em>principal values</em>, and boundary conditions for the complex functions following “Principal Values and Branch Cuts in Complex APL.” The branch cut rules that apply to each function are located with the description of that function.</p>
|

<p>Figure 12–9 lists the identities that are obeyed throughout the applicable portion of the complex domain, even on the branch cuts:</p>

<p>|sin i z = i sinh z sinh i z = i sin z arctan i z = i arctanh z cos i z = cosh z cosh i z = cos z arcsinh i z = i arcsin z tan i z = i tanh z arcsin i z = i arcsinh z arctanh i z = i arctan z|</p>

<p>The <span><i>compound type specifier</i></span> form of the numeric <span><i>type specifiers</i></span> permit the user to specify an interval on the real number line which describe a <span><i>subtype</i></span> of the <span><i>type</i></span> which would be described by the corresponding <span><i>atomic type specifier</i></span> . A <span><i>subtype</i></span> of some <em>type T</em> is specified using an ordered pair of <span><i>objects</i></span> called <span><i>interval designators</i></span> for <em>type T</em>.</p>
|
||
<p>The first of the two <span><i>interval designators</i></span> for <em>type T</em> can be any of the following:</p>
|
||
<p>a number <em>N</em> of <em>type T</em></p>
|
||
<p>This denotes a lower inclusive bound of <em>N</em>. That is, <span><i>elements</i></span> of the <span><i>subtype</i></span> of <span><i>T</i></span> will be greater than or equal to <em>N</em>.</p>
|
||
<p>a <em>singleton list</em> whose <span><i>element</i></span> is a number <em>M</em> of <em>type T</em></p>
|
||
<p>This denotes a lower exclusive bound of <em>M</em>. That is, <span><i>elements</i></span> of the <span><i>subtype</i></span> of <span><i>T</i></span> will be greater than <em>M</em>.</p>
|
||
<p>the symbol <strong>*</strong></p>
