Efficient manipulation of (some) real numbers in computers is a new frontier! Many interesting theoretical and algorithmic problems are linked with that topic, and belong to quite distant fields such as computer science, number theory, numerical analysis, computer algebra and logics. The aim of this special issue of TCS is to present the state of art in this increasing new domain, gathering contributions coming from these different areas. Researchers working on questions related to real computer arithmetic are encouraged to present the theoretical or algorithmic aspects of their results.
