Short: converts between long's and float's Author: lombi@iprimus.com.au (Lorence Lombardo) Uploader: lombi iprimus com au (Lorence Lombardo) Type: dev/lang Version: 28-Jun-2011 Architecture: m68k-amigaos fl_utils (C) 2011 Lorence Lombardo. WTF is fl_utils ? fl_utils is a collection of utilities for converting between the long integers of floats and floats. Who is it good for ? fl_utils could be useful to any language not having complete float support, such as:- ACE, Classic Blitz, PureBasic, Sozobon C, HCC, HCE, REXX, etc... long2float --- Converts the two long integers of a double float, into a floating point string. Usage:- long2float [frac_digits] eg. long2float 1074341010 1227133513 16 float2long --- Converts a double float to two long integers seperated by a space. Usage:- float2long eg. float2long .33333333333333333333 long2single -- Converts the long integer of a single float, into a floating point string. Usage:- long2single [frac_digits] single2long -- Converts a single float into a long integer. Usage:- float2long long2ffp ----- Converts the long integer of an FFP float, into a floating point string with a similar usage as "long2single". ffp2long ----- Converts an FFP float into a long integer with a similar usage as "single2long". fl_utils SAS have been tested under "ROM 1.3" with no FPU. Perhaps fl_utils might inspire a shared library.
