I've created a ticket and a pull request for the half-float type I implemented. Since my previous email, I've moved the half implementation into npymath so modules using numpy can do half-float code as well. There are a few key things that in my mind should get some discussion before saying this is final:
* The character code for half. I chose 'j' because 'h' was already taken by the 16-bit integer type, but maybe there's a reason to choose a different letter. * The API in npymath (or libndarray once refactoring is merged). I've tried to make it clean and follow numpy or ieee-754 conventions, but maybe it could be improved a bit. Here's the pull request: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/16 Thanks, Mark
