Proposed resolution (approved by CWG 2023-05-12):

Add a new paragraph after 6.8.2 [basic.fundamental] paragraph 12 as follows:

... Except as specified in 6.8.3 [basic.extended.fp], the object and value representations and accuracy of operations of floating-point types are implementation-defined.

The minimum range of representable values for a floating-point type is the most negative finite floating-point number representable in that type through the most positive finite floating-point number representable in that type. In addition, if negative infinity is representable in a type, the range of that type is extended to all negative real numbers; likewise, if positive infinity is representable in a type, the range of that type is extended to all positive real numbers. [ Note: Since negative and positive infinity are representable in ISO/IEC/IEEE 60559 formats, all real numbers lie within the range of representable values of a floating-point type adhering to ISO/IEC/IEEE 60559. ]

[Accepted as a DR at the June, 2023 meeting.]

The range of representable values is defined for integer types, but not for floating-point types. This term is used in 5.13.4 [lex.fcon] paragraph 3 as well as in the library, e.g. in 22.13.3 [charconv.from.chars] and 30.4.3.2.3 [facet.num.get.virtuals].

The C standard contains a suitable definition that we should inherit.
