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
|
||
|
|
<CODE>softfloat.a</CODE> or <CODE>libsoftfloat.a</CODE>) containing the
|
||
|
|
floating-point subroutines.
|
||
|

The SoftFloat package is documented in the following files in the
|
||
|
|
<CODE>doc</CODE> subdirectory:
