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 its system default state.


The minimum value for ⎕FPC is 53; the maximum value is the largest positive integer 9223372036854775807.
