Verrou

swMATH ID: 47679
Software Authors: Févotte, François; Lathuilière, Bruno
Description: Verrou: a floating-point rounding errors checker. Verrou helps you look for floating-point round-off errors in programs. It implements a stochastic floating-point arithmetic based on random rounding: all floating-point operations are perturbed by randomly switching rounding modes. This can be seen as an asynchronous variant of the CESTAC method, or a subset of Monte Carlo Arithmetic, performing only output randomization. As with many other Valgrind tools, you probably want to recompile your program with debugging info (the -g option) and with optimization turned on.
