 With the IEEE floating point representation, for finite positive normal values, ordinary

+integer division of the value in bits magically gives almost exactly the RHS of the above
 provided we first subtract the exponent bias and later add it back.  We do the
 subtraction virtually to keep e >= 0 so that ordinary integer division rounds towards
 minus infinity; this is also efficient. All operations can be done in 32-bit.

+The signature - as described in [Function calls](@ref) - of `f3` is a `UnionAll` type wrapping a tuple type: `Tuple{typeof(f3), Array{T}} where T`.
 All but `f4` can be called with `a = [1,2]`; all but `f2` can be called with `b = Any[1,2]`.
 
 Let's look at these types a little more closely:
