Specifically I was referring to standard float representation which permits signed zeros. However, other comments provide some interesting examples also.
Comment on near zero
PlexSheep@infosec.pub 8 months agoWhat do you mean? In two’s complement, there is only one zero.

Floating point numbers are not possible in two’s complement, besides that, what is your point? 0,99999999… is probably the same as 1.

IEEE 754 floating point numbers have a signed bit at the front, causing +0 and -0 to exist.
