/* A self-contained host- and target-independent arbitrary-precision
floating-point software implementation using bignum integer
arithmetic, as provided by static functions in the APInt class.
The library will work with bignum integers whose parts are any
unsigned type at least 16 bits wide. 64 bits is recommended.
Written for clarity rather than speed, in particular with a view
to use in the front-end of a cross compiler so that target
arithmetic can be correctly performed on the host. Performance
should nonetheless be reasonable, particularly for its intended
use. It may be useful as a base implementation for a run-time
library during development of a faster target-specific one.
All 5 rounding modes in the IEEE-754R draft are handled correctly
for all implemented operations. Currently implemented operations
are add, subtract, multiply, divide, fused-multiply-add,
conversion-to-float, conversion-to-integer and
conversion-from-integer. New rounding modes (e.g. away from zero)
can be added with three or four lines of code. The library reads
and correctly rounds hexadecimal floating point numbers as per
C99; syntax is required to have been validated by the caller.
Conversion from decimal is not currently implemented.
Four formats are built-in: IEEE single precision, double
precision, quadruple precision, and x87 80-bit extended double
(when operating with full extended precision). Adding a new
format that obeys IEEE semantics only requires adding two lines of
code: a declaration and definition of the format.
All operations return the status of that operation as an exception
bit-mask, so multiple operations can be done consecutively with
their results or-ed together. The returned status can be useful
for compiler diagnostics; e.g., inexact, underflow and overflow
can be easily diagnosed on constant folding, and compiler
optimizers can determine what exceptions would be raised by
folding operations and optimize, or perhaps not optimize,
accordingly.
At present, underflow tininess is detected after rounding; it
should be straight forward to add support for the before-rounding
case too.
Non-zero finite numbers are represented internally as a sign bit,
a 16-bit signed exponent, and the significand as an array of
integer parts. After normalization of a number of precision P the
exponent is within the range of the format, and if the number is
not denormal the P-th bit of the significand is set as an explicit
integer bit. For denormals the most significant bit is shifted
right so that the exponent is maintained at the format's minimum,
so that the smallest denormal has just the least significant bit
of the significand set. The sign of zeroes and infinities is
significant; the exponent and significand of such numbers is
indeterminate and meaningless. For QNaNs the sign bit, as well as
the exponent and significand are indeterminate and meaningless.
TODO
====
Some features that may or may not be worth adding:
Conversions to and from decimal strings (hard).
Conversions to hexadecimal string.
Read and write IEEE-format in-memory representations.
Optional ability to detect underflow tininess before rounding.
New formats: x87 in single and double precision mode (IEEE apart
from extended exponent range) and IBM two-double extended
precision (hard).
New operations: sqrt, copysign, nextafter, nexttoward.
