Post by thread:Bug free floating point library

I can't speak for all their libraries, but I did go line-by-line through the floating point library used in AN624 (PIC14000 example) and found a number of bugs -- creating numerical errors as large as thoses the required Intel to recall the Pentium way back when. No they are not bug free. In particular, look at all cases when a shift is done for addition or normalizing, and when the shift is a multiple of 8 -- the carry bit and resulting rounding is wrong.
