Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmeticIn computing, fixed-point refers to a method of representing fractional (non-integer) numbers by storing a fixed number of digits of their fractional part. Dollar amounts, for example, are often stored with exactly two fractional digits, representing the cents(1/100 of dollar). More generally, the term may refer to representing fractional values as integer multiples of some fixed small unit, e.g. a fractional amount of hours as an integer multiple of ten-minute intervals.

29.12.2014 · The fixed points of a function F are simply the solutions of F ( x) = x or the roots of F ( x) − x. The function f ( x) = 4 x ( 1 − x), for example, are x = 0 and x = 3 / 4 since. 4 x ( 1 − x) − x = x ( 4 ( 1 − x) − 1) = x ( 3 − 4 x). The simplest way …
