native_align


    native_align =  


 [char_align, short_align, int_align, long_align,  
  float_align, double_align, pointer_align, struct_align]  
struct_align may be -1 for ppc/ibm interpretation  
                    -2 for ppc/gcc interpretation

native_dlim


    native_dlim  


Keyword,  defined at i/ieee.i   line 46

SEE native_flim

native_fix


    native_fix = [short_format, int_format, long_format]  


format = [sizeof(type), order]  
order = 1 for big-endian (most significant byte first)  
       -1 for little-endian (least significant byte first)  
Keyword,  defined at i/ieee.i   line 24

native_flim


    native_flim = [big, tiny, eps]  


big is the biggest number  
tiny is the smallest non-denormal number  
eps is smallest number such that 1+eps != 1  
Keyword,  defined at i/ieee.i   line 46

native_flt


    native_flt = [float_format, double_format]  


format = [sizeof(type), order, sgn_addr, exp_addr, exp_size,  
          man_addr, man_size, man_norm, exp_bias, denorm]  
order = 1 for big-endian (most significant byte first)  
       -1 for little-endian (least significant byte first)  
   (interpreted code here does not yet handle VAX middle-endian)  
addr, size are bit address (from msb), number of bits  
man_norm is 0 if mantissa 1-bit implied, 1 if 1-bit explicit  
exp_bias is the exponent field for 1.0  
denorm is 0 if there are no denormals  
          1 if there are functioning denormals  
          2 if denormals exist but are treated as NaNs
