Floating Point Control

Z←⎕FPC returns the current value of the Floating Point Control precision.
Z is an integer scalar that represents the current value of the number of bits of precision used for VFP numbers.


⎕FPC←R sets the value of the Floating Point Control precision to R.
⎕FPC←⍬ sets the value of the Floating Point Control precision to its system default state.


The minimum value for ⎕FPC is 53; the maximum value is the largest positive 32-bit integer 2147483647.

The system default value is 128.


For example, (note: these numbers are normally one long string of digits; they are broken here, with the break shown by {continued) for your convenience in reading)
