![]() An extflonum is like a flonum, but with 80-bit precision and not a number in the sense of `number?': only operations such as `extfl+' work on extflonums, and only on platforms where extflonums can be implemented by hardware without interefering with flonums (i.e., on platforms where SSE instructions are used for double-precision floats). [Patch provided by Michael Filonenko and revised by Matthew.] The compiler tracks information about bindings that are known to hold extflonums, but the JIT does not yet exploit this information to unbox them (except as intermediate results). |
