Yes, I was considering this in the context of some approximation algorithms. Maybe one of the VM experts here could comment on the possibility to implement that?

Hi,

is there any way to set the rounding mode for IEEE floating point
operations? Maybe something like

Double roundToMinusInfWhile: [... code goes here ...]Double
roundToZeroWhile: [... more code here ...]


If not, is it possible to add this behavior, e.g., via a custom primitive?


​This might interesting to have something like that for PolyMath, but I'm a
little worried of subtle consequences
that might appear in UI if you use points for examples.​
