Modification (effective with 1.0.25):
The figure has been expanded to include the binary128 floating-point representation of data in the binary interchange format described in the 2019 Floating-Point Arithmetic Standard IEEE 754-2019 IEEE (2019). The figure caption has been updated using the terminology of the 2019 Floating-Point Arithmetic Standard.
