<H1>Package Overview for Berkeley SoftFloat Release 3e</H1>

<P>
Berkeley SoftFloat is a software implementation of binary floating-point that
conforms to the IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic.
SoftFloat is distributed in the form of C source code.
Building the SoftFloat sources generates a library file (typically
<CODE>softfloat.a</CODE> or <CODE>libsoftfloat.a</CODE>) containing the
floating-point subroutines.
</P>
<P>
The SoftFloat package is documented in the following files in the
<CODE>doc</CODE> subdirectory:
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<TABLE>

<TD><A HREF="doc/SoftFloat.html"><NOBR><CODE>SoftFloat.html</CODE></NOBR></A></TD>
