	Dear Dr. Patt

	I'm a student from one of your EE306 unique #16250. I was told 
	that a reference guide to the floating number discussion was 
	passed out to students. I was just wondering what this guide is 
	and where I could find it. I have not gotten it. 

	Thank you

Actually, this is the second question I got about a reference guide being 
passed out to students, so I better correct this for everyone.

Apparently, I said "two handouts" on floating point.  What I meant (even 
professors need sleep once in awhile) was "two long email messages" that I 
sent to the class, and assumed everyone received.  I wanted to be sure there 
were no questions about what I discussed in those two emails.

Did you get my two long emails on floating point.  If not, you should send 
email to Aater or Chang Joo to be sure we have your correct email address.  If 
you did receive them and something in them is not completely clear, please see 
one of the TAs or me for help.

Sorry I misspoke in class today and caused confusion.

Good luck with the rest of 306.
