Prof William “Mr IEEE-754” Kahan’s foreword to the “Standard Apple Numerics
Manual” had this to say about some of those machines:

    For instance, a very Important Bunch of Machines launched in 1964
    were found to have two anomalies in their double-precision
    arithmetic (though not in single): First, multiplying a number /Z/
    by 1.0 would lop off /Z/'s last digit. Second, the difference
    between two nearly equal numbers, whose digits mostly canceled,
    could be computed wrong by a factor almost as big as 16 instead of
    being computed exactly as is normal. The anomalies introduced a
    kind of noise in the feedback loops by which some programs had
    compensated for their own rounding errors, so those programs lost
    their high accuracies. These anomalies were not "bugs"; they were
    "features" designed into the arithmetic by designers who thought
    nobody would care. Customers did care; the arithmetic was
    redesigned and repairs were retrofitted in 1967.

    Not all Capriciously Designed Computer arithmetics have been
    repaired. One family of computers has enjoyed notoriety for two
    decades by allowing programs to generate tiny "partially
    underflowed" numbers. When one of these creatures turns up as the
    value of /T/ in an otherwise innocuous statement like

    if T = 0.0 then Q := 0.0 else Q := 702345.6 / (T + 0.00189 / T);

    it causes the computer to stop execution and emit a message
    alleging "Division by Zero". The machine's schizophrenic attitude
    toward zero comes about because the test for T = 0.0 is carried
    out by the adder, which examines at least 13 of /T/'s leading
    digits, whereas the divider and multiplier examine only 12 to
    recognize zero. Doing so saved less than a dollar's worth of
    transistors and maybe a picosecond of time, but at the cost of
    some disagreement about whether a very tiny number /T/ is zero or
    not. Fortunately, the divider agrees with the multiplier about
    whether /T/ is zero, so programmers could prevent spurious
    divisions by zero by slightly altering the foregoing statement as
    follows:

    if 1.0 * T = 0.0 then Q := 0.0 else Q := 702345.6 / (T + 0.00189 / T);

    Unfortunately, the Same Computer designer responsible for "partial
    underflow" designed another machine that can generate "partially
    underflowed" numbers /T/ for which this statement malfunctions. On
    that machine, /Q/ would be computed unexceptionably except that
    the product 1.0 * T causes the machine to stop and emit a message
    alleging "Overflow". How should a programmer rewrite that
    innocuous statement so that it will work correctly on both
    machines? We should be thankful that such a task is not
    encountered every day.
