Let u denote the relative rounding error of some floating-point format.Recently it has been shown that for a number of standard Wilkinson-type bounds the typical factors γ k := ku/(1−ku) can be improved into ku, and that the bounds are valid without restriction on k. Problems include summation, dot products and thus matrix multiplication, residual bounds for LU-and Cholesky-decomposition, and triangular system solving by substitution.In this note we show a similar result for the product k i=0 x i of real and/or floatingpoint numbers x i , for computation in any order, and for any base β 2. The derived error bounds are valid under a mandatory restriction of k. Moreover, we prove a similar bound for Horner's polynomial evaluation scheme.
