# IEEE754_tools
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Arduino library to manipulate IEEE754 float numbers fast.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
IEEE754tools.h contains a collection of bit-hacks to speed up a number
|
|
|
|
|
of operations on floating point numbers on the Arduino. These bit-hacks
|
|
|
|
|
started in 2010 (oldest code found) or maybe even earlier.

## WARNING
|
|
|
|
|
* If you don't need micro-second speedups **do not use** these code snippets.
|
|
|
|
|
* code is experimental, so use with care.
|
|
|
|
|
* only tested on UNO
|
|
|

|
## Future
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* include https://playground.arduino.cc/Main/IEEE754tools/
|
|
|
|
|
* write examples
|
|
|
|
|
* test on ESP32
|
|
|
|
|
* binary transfer over serial (see playground)
