Berkeley SoftFloat is a software implementation of binary floating-point
|
that conforms to the IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic. SoftFloat
|
is distributed in the form of C source code. Building the SoftFloat sources
|
generates a library file (typically "softfloat.a" or "libsoftfloat.a")
|
containing the floating-point subroutines.
|
|
The SoftFloat package is documented in the following files in the "doc"
|
subdirectory:
|
|
SoftFloat.html Documentation for using the SoftFloat functions.
|
SoftFloat-source.html Documentation for building SoftFloat.
|
SoftFloat-history.html History of the major changes to SoftFloat.
|
|
Other files in the package comprise the source code for SoftFloat.
