fdlibm: maths lib

Post by dseller »

Hi guys, maybe you are interested in this too! I found a fairly "free" maths library which you can use in your O/S development adventures. It's pretty autonomous in the way that it can be compiled stand-alone, and this is of course perfect for operating system development. I wanted some floating point support in my terminal code, so I stumbled upon this: http://www.netlib.org/fdlibm/

This is quite interesting. I'll probably use it in my OS, if it's faster than my current implementation. Thanks!

Would you stop necro'ing posts?
If some of you people keep insisting on having backwards compatibitity with the stone age, we'll have stone tools forever.
