In software engineering and numerical analysis, a binade is a set of numbers in a binary floating-point format that all have the same sign and exponent.
In other words, a binade is the interval [ 2 e , 2 e + 1 ) or ( − 2 e + 1 , − 2 e ] for some integer value e , that is, the set of real numbers or floating-point numbers x of the same sign such that 2 e ≤ | x | < 2 e + 1 . Some authors use the convention of the closed interval [ 2 e , 2 e + 1 ] instead of a half-open interval,
