Hello anybody,
I have to complile a Fortran program using REAL*16 (16 bytes wide
floating-point) for specific variables.
Is there any any extension for g77 providing such a type?
I don't know much about Fortran, but in C the expression:
sizeof(long double)
delivers 12 on i386 and 16 on sparc. So it should be relative easy to
implement a type with higher precision, maybe it is done and I don't
know how to use it.
Thanks
