Triple-Double    

Robert P. Munafo, 2023 Jun 19.



This term refers to a number format for calculation with three times the precision of the "native" hardware-supported double precision. See the double-double article for details of the principles. My article on f107 and f161 has even more.

See also quad-double and arbitrary-precision arithmetic.
