The Unit "FixedPointConversions.p" contains routines to convert Fixed-point numbers to double-precision floating-point numbers, and single-precision floating-point numbers to fixed-point numbers. One routine illustrates the breakdown of a floating-point number. See the description at the beginning of the file for more information.
Note that these conversions have not been tested on a PowerPC.
Note!!! Double precision numbers are assumed to be 8 bytes long. For the Metrowerks compiler, make sure 8-byte Doubles are selected under compiler options.
