Double concerto Piano, and Timpani" is commonly known by the title "Double Concerto," where the word "double" refers to the two string bodies rather than to the piano and timpani who are not soloists in the conventional sense. Concerti with more than two solo parts may be known by the terms "triple concerto" (Italian: "Concerto triplo", German: "Tripelkonzert"), "quadruple concerto," etc., but not usually when the instruments of the same type (e.g., Vivaldi's Concerto for Four Violins in B minor, catalogued as RV 580 and transcribed for four harpsichords by Bach as BWV 1065). One common arrangement for a triple concerto is
Quadruple-precision floating-point format the double-double technique above, although that technique does not implement IEEE quadruple precision), since direct hardware support for quadruple precision is, as of 2016, less common (see "Hardware support" below). One can use general arbitrary-precision arithmetic libraries to obtain quadruple (or higher) precision, but specialized quadruple-precision implementations may achieve higher performance. A separate question is the extent to which quadruple-precision types are directly incorporated into computer programming languages. Quadruple precision is specified in Fortran by the codice_2 (module codice_3 from Fortran 2008 must be used, the constant codice_4 is equal to 16 on most processors), or as codice_5, or in
