Has IBM established a standard in any of the various high-level languages
for the representation of the various floating-point formats and precisions?

.         Formats:

o   Binary

o   Decimal

o   Hexadecimal

.         Precisions:

o   Single (4-byte)

o   Double (8-byte)

o   Quadruple (16-byte)

I am specifically looking at both fixed-point and scientific notation.
