Floating point support #18

Closed Piedone closed 6 years ago

Piedone commented 7 years ago

Standard IEEE double support is costly. Something else? Maybe https://github.com/Lombiq/Hastlayer-SDK/issues/21.

We could even use this library: https://github.com/CodesInChaos/SoftFloat/ It's mostly transformable directly.

Going with #21. SoftFloat is very old, abandoned and lacks an implementation for division. We could add some other soft float implementation in the future to compare posits to.
