I'm curious which floating point packs are freely available. Jos, can you point so something interesting ?
I'd like to get a at least double precision library going for a project doing some astronomical toy (say, point antenna at moon) and most code for that does not really work with single precision.
Also, am I right at suspecting that a 'proper' floating point implementation requires to change the interpreter to recognize FP numbers ? It seems feasible but seems like a fairly decent chunk of work, especially when FP speed is not of the essence (e.g. Moon angular speed relative to earth is not that fast).
My other option, micropython (on esp32), is also handicapped in the precision department.

Hi,
In the end I managed to port a simple high level floating point pack to
Punyforth.
There is no floating-point stack. It uses the normal stack.
2147483647 1+ is used as the highbit.
Not sure that is right for Punyforth.
The pack needs to be tested.
Interested?

Yes, interested, as I didn't really find a high level FP library (I haven't
anything fort in a loong time).
Many thanks!

Very cool, thanks! It's always amazing how much you can do with so little
code in forth (though APL seems equally compact).
This won't be enough for me since for pointing at the moon I need a bunch
of trig functions. I'll consider adding floating point to punyforth
natively, but I first need to get it to work on esp32 devices at all. The
code is a bit gnarly - both on the esp-idf sdk and punyforth side, but it
seems doable.
I also found some hints on how to make micropython double precision, I
will try that as well. It seems like a simpler way forward, and most esp32
devices have no problem running substantial python programs.
Anyway, thanks again (also for the winforth pages -- nice!)

Hi,
Please inform us when punyforth is working on a esp32.
