Beyond IEEE754 Floating Point: Next Generation Computer Arithmetic

A new data type posit for direct drop-in replacement for IEEE754.
- Simpler hardware implementation from 2 to thousands of bits.
- Larger dynamic range, higher accuracy, better closure under arithmetic operations, and simpler exception-handling
- Unlike unum arithmetic, posits do not require interval-type mathematics or variable size operands, and they round if an answer is inexact, much the way floats do.
