Abstract

A software implementation of floating-point addition and multiplication is presented. For this, the ANSI/IEEE standard for binary floating-point arithmetic is reviewed briefly. The architecture and behavior of the $Intel^{(R)}\;80{\times}87$ FPU is fully studied and basic algorithms for floating-point addition and multiplication are used for the implementation. Some examples and their verifications are also presented.
