What Does FP Stand For?

FP stands for Fixed Point

FP, or Fixed Point, refers to a value in mathematics and computer science that remains constant under a specific transformation or function. In numerical analysis, fixed-point methods are iterative techniques used to find solutions to equations where a function's output equals its input. In the context of programming and data representation, fixed-point notation is a way of representing real numbers with a fixed number of digits before and after the decimal point, allowing for precise calculations in systems where floating-point arithmetic may not be suitable.
