[comp.sys.sun] Quadruple precision on SPARC

jim@fuji.eng.yale.edu (James J. Szinger) (05/10/91)

Does anyone out there know how to access the SPARC's quad precision
floating point math.  I know how to do it in assembly, but it's really
ugly.  I could also write a C++ class to do it but that's too much work if
it's been done already.  I need only the basic arithmetic opereations
which are supported by the FPU: add, subtract, multiply, divide, etc.  If
you can help, please send e-mail.
