Abstract
Can we assure math computations by automatic verifying floating-point accuracy? We define fast arithmetic (based on Dekker [1971]) over twofold approximations , such that is standard result and assesses inaccuracy . We propose on-fly tracking , detecting if appears too high. We believe permanent tracking is worth its cost. C++ test code for Intel AVX available via web.
