Hi John,
I started working on a library for having “safe-float†implementation during the last GSOC.
It is still WIP.
If you want to take a look at it.
I coded 2 different approaches.
First one, I think more naive here:
— Documentation: http://sdavtaker.github.io/safefloat/doc/html/index.html <http://sdavtaker.github.io/safefloat/doc/html/index.html>
— Code: https://github.com/sdavtaker/safefloat <https://github.com/sdavtaker/safefloat>
And then a second one, I believe better approach here:
— Code: https://github.com/sdavtaker/safe_numerics/tree/safe_float/ <https://github.com/sdavtaker/safe_numerics/tree/safe_float/>
— Doc included in the tree.
Any feedback on it will help a lot in deciding how to keep going.
If you interested in more details, I can expand further, I have also some documentation that is not available in the web yet.
Best regards,
Damian
