gh-99880: document rounding mode for new-style formatting (GH-121481)
* gh-99880: document rounding mode for new-style formatting The CPython uses _Py_dg_dtoa(), which does rounding to nearest with half to even tie-breaking rule. If that functions is unavailable, PyOS_double_to_string() fallbacks to system snprintf(). Since CPython 3.12, build requirements include C11 compiler *and* support for IEEE 754 floating point numbers (Annex F). This means that FE_TONEAREST macro is available and, per default, printf-like functions should use same rounding mode as _Py_dg_dtoa(). * Update Doc/library/string.rst Co-authored-by: Bénédikt Tran <10796600+picnixz@users.noreply.github.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Bénédikt Tran <10796600+picnixz@users.noreply.github.com>
