| The latest versions of the library have a variety of subtle differences compared with `chop`. | ||
| * Since [14 June 2022](https://github.com/higham/chop/commit/1d37238067042416a3554a1f5e6cdd248b613999), `chop` supports specifying the function for generating pseudo-random numbers. The MEX interface of CPFloat does not offer this capability, as the pseudo-random numbers are generated in C and not in MATLAB. | ||
| * Since v0.6.0, CPFloat allows users to specify *e*<sub>min</sub> and *e*<sub>max</sub> separately. In earlier versions, users can only specify *e*<sub>max</sub>, while *e*<sub>min</sub> is set to 1 – *e*<sub>max</sub>. | ||
| * Since v0.6.0, the default 8-bit format `E4M3` has *e*<sub>max</sub> = 8 and *e*<sub>min</sub> = –6, which is consistent with the homonymous format in the December 2023 revision of the OCP 8-bit Floating Point Specification (OFP8). In `chop`, *e*<sub>max</sub> = 7 and *e*<sub>min</sub> = –6. |
