If you have 4 GHz of processing IEEE but getting a wrong answer at the end, how do you compare that to a smaller number of FLOPS with a rigorously-bounded answer? I'm not saying they're apples to oranges, I'm saying…
This is exactly right - there's an environmental configuration. Think of the way it's ridiculous to play angrybirds with 32 or 64bit precision on your phone, you could set the precision appropriately. Or on the other…
