To: J3 J3/17-241r1 From: Dan Nagle Subject: scale factors do not affect integers Date: 2017 October 18 Introduction Comment GB048 remarks that the description of the scale factor and G formatting allows a kP to appear with a G edit descriptor. But kP does not apply to integer editing. This should be stated in the description of the P editing. While checking the edits, note was made that there is a typo in the discussion of P. An edit is supplied to repair this. Specifically, the punctuation following EX is "." where "," is intended. Edits {against 17-007r2} {13.8 P editing} [284:14] Change "numeric" to "real and complex" [284:14] change "EX." to "EX," The resulting sentence will read "The scale factor affects the editing done by the F, E, EN, ES, EX, D, and G edit descriptors for real and complex quantities." {exclude I from the effects of P}
