ASM instruction /opcode: normalize a double value
-
is there an ASM instruction (or opcode) that normalizes a double value (i.e. adjusts the exponent so the mantissa is .1xxxxx) (And - if you don't mind - MSVC C++ inline assembly to normalize a
double d)
we are here to help each other get through this thing, whatever it is Vonnegut jr.

sighist Fold With Us! || Agile Programming | doxygenThe real numbers are always stored in normalized form. The high-order bit of the mantissa is always 1 and it is not stored in the real*4 and real*8 formats.
