Floating Point Interpretive System (BELL interpreter)
|
|
From Bitsavers Manual 28-4024_FltDecIntrpSys.pdf
|
|
|
|
Do not uses the loader stated in manual.
|
|
Instead, I wrote a loader (SOAP source code is_sys_load_src.txt)
|
|
that allows reading the original listing from manual and generating
|
|
a 1-word per card load deck.
|
|
|
|
A new deck (deck 21) has been written to defined two new
|
|
O2 instructions (see is_set_loopbox.txt):
|
|
|
|
set loopbox O2=800
|
|
tr zero O2=453
|
|
|
|
These instructions allows a more general use of index
|
|
loopbox concept (see is_example_1_src.txt)
|
|
|
|
Floating point numbers are encoded as
|
|
|
|
2300000049 = 0.23
|
|
1000000050 = 1.0
|
|
1500000052 = 150.0
