This chapter covers scalar floating-point programming. The first set of source code examples teaches the basics of floating-point arithmetic using single-precision and double-precision floating-point values. The next set of examples explains how to perform floating-point comparisons and conversions. This is followed by a couple of source code examples that illustrate the use of floating-point arrays and matrices. The final source code example describes how to call a C++ library function from an assembly language function. Besides these topics, Chapter 6 also ...
