This package is a floating mantissa definition of a binary FLOAT. It was first used on the DEC-10 and the VAX but should work for any since the parameters are obtained by initial sizing on the actual hardware. Otherwise the parameters could be set in the spec if known. This is a preliminary package that defines the properties of the particular floating point type.
The constants are those required by the routines described in "Software Manual for the Elementary Functions" W. Cody and W. Waite, Prentice-Hall 1980. Actually most are needed only for the test programs rather than the functions themselves. Most of these could be in the form of attributes if all the floating types to be considered were those built into the compiler.
