Line 116:
significand is in error, but the declet is still interpreted as
coding a three-digit decimal sequence.
 
In the above cases, with the ''truesignificand'' as the sequence of decimal digits decoded, the value represented is
 
<math>(-1)^\text{signbit}\times 10^{\text{exponentbits}_2-398}\times \text{truesignificand}_{10}</math>
 
The exponent range and digit precision are the same for both alternative encodings.
 
The encoding for the infinities and NaNs are the same for both alternative encodings.
