Serialization of binary floating point numbers

2019-05-17 Thread Sad Clouds
A bit of a random question/thought - what is a good and portable method of storing/transmitting binary floating point numbers? Anyone aware of any conversion functions in NetBSD that I can look at? Searching the Internet, there are various opinions and references on how to do it, but there

my last mail to the list was probably incorrectly worded, i am restating it now. would writing code which works about the "hardware abstraction layer" of netbsd require one to have a good grasp of assembler? i need to have an end-goal to focus on my studies, i have chosen one such by wanting to
