Is there any good documentation about the algorithms for adding and multiplying posits? Most of the stuff I have found focuses on how well they represent numbers, and less on how to manipulate the bits.
- adgjlsfhk1 5y agoThe basics of the algorithms are essentially the same as for floating point. You separate the mantissa, exponent, and sign and then do the calculations in the same way.
