You sound like an expert! How long would code take, for 32 bit floating point multiply, on Z80 vs 6502? I'm curious, as a way to compare progress with todays 5

You sound like an expert! How long would code take, for 32 bit floating point multiply, on Z80 vs 6502?
I'm curious, as a way to compare progress with todays 500 GFLOPS phone GPUs, and 10 TFLOPS PC GPU cards.
But neither Z80 nor 6502 have native 32 bit, nor fp, nor multiply, so a program is needed... this must have been done, for some applications.
