Previously, 1-4 low-order bits of the input value were essentially ignored when calculating the numerator, but used to some degree when calculating the denominator. This would lead to the calculated tgamma values decreasing slightly over the range of several consecutive input values (when they should increase). Now, the low-order bits of the input value are effectively just rounded away. This should give slightly more accurate results, and greatly reduces the frequency of cases where consecutive output values go in the wrong direction.

Libraries for the ORCA language suite (ORCA/C, ORCA/M, ORCA/Pascal) for the Apple IIGS
If you would like to make changes to this compiler and distribute them to others, feel free to submit them here. If the changes apply to the Apple IIGS, they will generally be approved for distribution on the master branch. For changes that retarget the library to generate code for a different platform, the project will either be forked or a new repository will be created, as appropriate.
The general conditions that must be met before a change is released on master are:
-
The modified library must compile under the currently released version of ORCA/M.
-
The various languages that make use of the library mush still pass their respective test suites, or changes to those test suites must also be submitted.
Contact support@byteworks.us if you need contributor access.
A complete distribution of the ORCA languages, including installers and documentation, is available from the Juiced GS store at https://juiced.gs/store/category/software/. It is distributed as part of the Opus ][ package.
