Changelog of @hackage/ieee 0.7

Changes in 0.7:

• Add IEEE type class with instances for Double, Float, CDouble, and CFloat

• Add functions for getting/setting NaN payloads

• Add succIEEE/predIEEE for advancing up and down the IEEE number line (ported from Tango's nextUp and nextDown)

• Add bisectIEEE for midpoints of two numbers on the IEEE number line (ported from Tango's ieeeMean)

• Add identicalIEEE for exact (bitwise) equality of IEEE numbers

• Add copySign for setting the sign bit of an IEEE number

• Add sameSignificandBits for seeing how many significand bits of two IEEE numbers agree, ported from Tango's feqrel

• Add nan, infinity, maxFinite, minNormal constants for IEEE numbers

• Add maxNum and minNum

• Rename maxF and minF to maxNaN and minNaN

• Switch to a simpler "~==" comparison for complex numbers

• Make "~==" comparison use sameSignificandBits for IEEE types

• Make "===" comparison use bitwise equality for IEEE types

• Remove old "eqRel" comparisons.

• Remove old epsilon' and delta constants

• Remove (RealFloat a) => AEq (Complex a) instance in favor of explicit instances for Complex {Double,Float,CDouble,CFloat}

Changes in 0.6.1:

• Remove AEq instance for CLDouble (thanks to Bjorn Buckwalter)
