- There are several extra precision floating point packages in netlib
- (research.att.com). Two are in the TOMS directory, and there is a
- C package in netlib/cephes/qfloat that I wrote. Also check the
- directory called fp; it stands for "floating point" and may have
- some items of interest. For debugging an arithmetic, I have found
- the PARANOIA test program to be invaluable. The original paranoia
- is in netlib/paranoia. An adaptation for user-created arithmetic
- subroutines is included with another test program of mine that is
- on usc.edu in the /pub directory.
