"In computing, the least significant bit (LSB) is the bit position in a binary number having the value of 1."
- Not for a floating point number. Right? - Omegatron 19:01, Jan 27, 2005 (UTC)

- Correct. Would the following be a better wording? "In computing, the least significant bit (LSB) is the bit position in a binary number having the integer value of 1." Would it be appropriate to mention floating point here? Or would that be too much of a diversion from the topic? Jimwilliams57 02:34, Jan 28, 2005 (UTC)
