Description: | The decNumber library implements the General Decimal Arithmetic Specification
in ANSI C. This specification defines a decimal arithmetic which meets the
requirements of commercial, financial, and human-oriented applications. It
also matches the decimal arithmetic in the IEEE 754 Standard for Floating
Point Arithmetic.
The library fully implements the specification, and hence supports integer,
fixed-point, and floating-point decimal numbers directly, including infinite,
NaN (Not a Number), and subnormal values. Both arbitrary-precision and
fixed-size representations are supported.
This version is a fork by SoftDevLabs (SDL) to support the SDL-Hercules-390
emulator.
The sdl-decnumber-devel package contains libraries and header files for
developing applications that use sdl-decnumber. |
