| 2025-03-26 00:06:16 +0100 | <otto_s> | Is there a reason, why the imaginary party of -1 :: Complex Double *should* be -0 ? |
| 2025-03-26 00:08:54 +0100 | <otto_s> | Oh, I see, mauke answered that already. |
| 2025-03-26 00:10:41 +0100 | <otto_s> | Floats are evil. *g* |
| 2025-03-26 00:10:43 +0100 | <geekosaur> | I think the full answer involves complex numbers as being on a plane, and having trig on them produce results in the correct quadrant? |

| 2025-03-26 00:12:26 +0100 | <otto_s> | No, I think the culprit is just: |
| 2025-03-26 00:12:29 +0100 | <otto_s> | > isNegativeZero $ negate 0 |
| 2025-03-26 00:12:31 +0100 | <lambdabot> | True |
| 2025-03-26 00:13:12 +0100 | <geekosaur> | right, but what I said is why the whole "negative zero" thing exists in the first place. see also atan2 |
| 2025-03-26 00:13:17 +0100 | <otto_s> | (and then late, of course, how log decides where to go) |

| 2025-03-26 04:31:30 +0100 | <EvanR> | if you add -0.5 and +0.5, it equals zero, not +zero |

| 2025-03-26 04:38:45 +0100 | <EvanR> | the section on signed zero just notes trig functions and complex analysis functions, makes sense |
| 2025-03-26 04:38:51 +0100 | <monochrom> | Because 1/("neutral exact" zero) has no reason to be either +oo or -oo. (At most a reason to be the Riemann sphere oo.) Whereas 1/(+0) does. |
| 2025-03-26 04:39:21 +0100 | <EvanR> | though the interpretation of "zero minus" and "zero plus" breaks down for results that should be exactly zero |

| 2025-03-26 04:40:34 +0100 | <EvanR> | yes recip of exactly zero wouldn't be either infinity |
| 2025-03-26 04:40:47 +0100 | <EvanR> | it would be its own thing, similar to graphical linear algebra |
| 2025-03-26 04:41:05 +0100 | <EvanR> | which also has infinities over infinity |
