Odkryłem, że platforma testowa Google C ++ zawiera ładną wieloplatformową implementację AlmostEqual2sComplement, która działa zarówno na podwójnych, jak i zmiennoprzecinkowych. Biorąc pod uwagę, że jest on wydany na licencji BSD, użycie go we własnym kodzie nie powinno stanowić problemu, pod warunkiem zachowania licencji. Wyodrębniłem poniższy kod z http://code.google.com/p/googletest/source/browse/trunk/include/gtest/internal/gtest-internal.h https://github.com/google/googletest/blob /master/googletest/include/gtest/internal/gtest-internal.h i dodał licencję na górze.
Pamiętaj, aby # zdefiniować GTEST_OS_WINDOWS do pewnej wartości (lub zmienić kod, w którym jest on przyzwyczajony, na coś, co pasuje do twojej bazy kodowej - w końcu jest to licencja BSD).
Przykład użycia:
double left = // something
double right = // something
const FloatingPoint<double> lhs(left), rhs(right);
if (lhs.AlmostEquals(rhs)) {
//they're equal!
}

// The Google C++ Testing Framework (Google Test)
// This template class serves as a compile-time function from size to
// type. It maps a size in bytes to a primitive type with that
// size. e.g.
//
// TypeWithSize<4>::UInt
//
// is typedef-ed to be unsigned int (unsigned integer made up of 4
// bytes).
//
// Such functionality should belong to STL, but I cannot find it
// there.
//
// Google Test uses this class in the implementation of floating-point
// comparison.
//
// For now it only handles UInt (unsigned int) as that's all Google Test
// needs. Other types can be easily added in the future if need
// arises.

// This template class represents an IEEE floating-point number
// (either single-precision or double-precision, depending on the
// template parameters).
//
// The purpose of this class is to do more sophisticated number
// comparison. (Due to round-off error, etc, it's very unlikely that
// two floating-points will be equal exactly. Hence a naive
// comparison by the == operation often doesn't work.)
//
// Format of IEEE floating-point:
//
// The most-significant bit being the leftmost, an IEEE
// floating-point looks like
//
// sign_bit exponent_bits fraction_bits
//
// Here, sign_bit is a single bit that designates the sign of the
// number.
//
// For float, there are 8 exponent bits and 23 fraction bits.
//
// For double, there are 11 exponent bits and 52 fraction bits.
//
// More details can be found at
// http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_floating-point_standard.
//
// Template parameter:
//
// RawType: the raw floating-point type (either float or double)
template <typename RawType>

// floating point number.

EDYCJA: Ten post ma 4 lata. Prawdopodobnie jest nadal poprawny, a kod jest fajny, ale niektórzy znaleźli ulepszenia. Najlepiej skorzystaj z najnowszej wersji AlmostEqualskodu źródłowego Google Test, a nie tej, którą tutaj wkleiłem.
<invoke Knuth>Przedwczesna optymalizacja jest źródłem wszelkiego zła.</invoke Knuth>Po prostu skorzystaj z abs (ab) <EPS, jak wspomniano powyżej, jest to jasne i łatwe do zrozumienia.
