Flocq

The Flocq library for formalizing floating-point arithmetic in Coq

Keywords: Floating-point - Arithmetic code - Coq

Functional Description

The Flocq library for the Coq proof assistant is a comprehensive formalization of floating-point arithmetic: core definitions, axiomatic and computational rounding operations, high-level properties. It provides a framework for developers to formally certify numerical applications.

Flocq is currently used by the CompCert certified compiler for its support of floating-point computations.
