Template

//! Module Name
//!
//! # Floating-Point Arithmetic
//!
//! This module performs extensive floating-point arithmetic for [algorithm].
//! IEEE 754 compliance is assumed. NaN/Inf handling:
//! - **NaN propagation**: [How NaNs are filtered/handled]
//! - **Inf handling**: [How Inf is prevented/clamped]
//! - **Zero division**: [How zero division is prevented]
//!
//! Clippy's `float_arithmetic` lint is intentionally allowed for this module.
