- Hi Folks,
-
- I am wondering if any knowledgeable soul could help me with the following
- problem. I have been using in my code, BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms),
- which are routines called by public domain math packages such as LINPACK,
- EISPACK etc. I have recently started working on a CRAY-YMP and am need of the
- following machine constants for single precision for that machine.
-
- 1) Smallest positive magintude
- 2) Largest positive magnitude
- 3) Smallest relative spacing
- 4) Largest relative spacing
-
- I would appreciate your help if you can point me where I can find these
- values.
-
- Thanks,
- Satya Padavala
