Yep, and that last number is the 2-adic representation of -4/3. It turns out a lot of ideas from calculus and real analysis carry over to the 2-adics, and this can lead to some interesting computational shortcuts since two’s complement is essentially native 2-adic arithmetic. I’ve blogged a bit about this here: https://kevinventullo.com/ |
