18 | of the expression <code class="code">a * b + c</code>.</li><li><code class="function">fma</code>() will be computed with the same precision as any | |
19 | other <code class="function">fma</code>() consumed by a <code class="code">precise</code> variable, | |

21 | <em class="parameter"><code>b</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>c</code></em>.</li></ul></div><p> | |
22 | Otherwise, in the absense of <code class="code">precise</code> consumption, there are no | |
