[comp.sys.dec] Directed floating point rounding?

te07@edrc.cmu.edu (Thomas Epperly) (06/23/89)

How do you change the IEEE floating point flags on the DECstation 3100 in C?
I want to change the rounding mode for a numerical application.  I found
some clues in /usr/include/fpu.h and some routine definitions, but they
don't have any explanations.  I think that knowing the parameters to
get_fpc_csr() and set_fpc_csr would be all that I need.  Please send any
information or suggestions.
