fixedpnt

Binary Fixed Point calculations with Ruby. fixedpnt allows simulating binary fixed point calculations done in hardware. If you want to know what fixed point numbers are, you can read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmetic There is another library from Phil Tomson which serves the same purpose but with different properties: http://rubyforge.org/projects/fixedpt/ For _decimal_ fixed point calculations there is at least the library from Karl Brodowsky: http://rubyforge.org/projects/long-decimal/
