Does anyone have a float to ascii routine, i.e. the
float equivalent of the itoa routine found in K&R?

We have to do a number of float to ascii conversions in a very tight
loop and would prefer not to use sprintf because sprintf is
currently a very expensive operation with our C compiler.

Thanks in advance
