Re: [fpu] java, C & IEEE-754

[Jamil Khatib <jamilkhatib75@yahoo.com>]

I read some where that Java language does not support
full IEEE-754 but I do not how thats why I am asking.

My choise for Java because of teh ease of parsing in
it and its web nature and platform independent.

I think this platform independence is the main idea
why it does not support full IEEE standard.

I am not sure about that I have to check it more.


I downloaded Rudi's executable program I think it will
be much usfull specially if the source is available.
