Introduction to Posits - Events Calendar<https://calendar.mit.edu/event/introduction-to-posits>
This is an introduction to posit computing. Posits are a replacement for the IEEE standard floating point notation used in most programming languages. The case for using posits is substantially made in the new book on the topic. A full description of the numerical notation, as well as usage cases, will be presented. We will also have an AMA discussion with the author. https://tinyurl.com ...
