[what do you do when integers just aren't enough any more]

Greetings.

I am asked to put feelers out for C implementations of IEEE floating point 
functions  for add, subtract, multiply, and divide.  The code should be
fast and reasonably portable.

Any pointers to code, or actual code itself, would be very welcome.

Rumor has it that there is a Pascal implementation that doesn't suck.
Pointers to that would also be welcome.  We can always translate it if
push comes to pop.

Much thanks to those who respond...

  Hutch
