Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (OFFICE-3771) Public Comment: 2's complement negative and 10 binary digits
[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3771?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=31416#action_31416 ] Patrick Durusau commented on OFFICE-3771: ----------------------------------------- Andreas, I understood the request to be for the ability to convert numbers into negative base 2. Meaningless for bases other than 2 to be sure but is that the answer to a need for numbers expressed as negative base 2? The default is being proposed as 10 digit but to support values up to 64 (I understand that as a separate issue from the negative base 2 issue.) Are there any negative base expressions other than base 2? (Just in case.) > Public Comment: 2's complement negative and 10 binary digits > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: OFFICE-3771 > URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3771 > Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Robert Weir > Priority: Blocker > > Copied from office-comment list > Original author: efa@iol.it" <efa@iol.it> > Original date: 2012 04:44:15 -0700 (PDT) > Original URL: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office-comment/201208/msg00000.html > From the post: > this just to be sure the RFEs for ODv1.3 was tracked and so can be discussed > and maybe added. > The RFEs are: > 1) a modification to BASE(), to support two's complement negative binary > numbers. > Use the optional 3th parameter: 'Integer MinimumLength' to specify the bit > size of the machine word for negative numbers. > see: > https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office-comment/201011/msg00002.html > ref: > http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/cd05/OpenDocument-v1.2-cd05-part2.html#a_6_19_3_BASE > 2) DEC2BIN and BIN2DEC support of more than 10 binary digits, see: > https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45950 > refs: > http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/cd05/OpenDocument-v1.2-cd05-part2. > html#a_6_19_7_DEC2BIN > http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/cd05/OpenDocument-v1.2-cd05-part2. > html#a_6_19_11_HEX2BIN -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
