This implies that even if the result is computable to , say , 20 digits , we never require more than 6 digits of accuracy . . Now all the preceding comments generalize quite naturally to functions of many variables .

If the processor accepts the reply , the program then tests that six digits of accuracy have been preserved . If so , you will get a message that the test is OK , and may go on to the next reply . If not , you will get a message ...
