Re: Binary Fixed-Point in Ruby? (Improved FixedPt?)

From: Axel Friedrich <lists@...>

Unfortunatly, I don't understand how BigDecimal could help with my
Binary- Fixed-Point problems.

Maybe I should explain in more details:

I have _no_ problem with accuracy.
I'm developing hardware, which calculates mathematic expressions using
"fixed-point binary representations" of values. That is a certain number
of bits (say 16) represent a value (say 0.1). The format of the
fixed-point representation must "set" right (right number of bits and
right place of the virtual binary point), in order to avoid overflow or
loss of accuracy. For checking, if I have "set" the format right, I want
to simulate it in Ruby. Normaly, Ruby does it's calculations in Integer,
or Double or even BigDecimal, but not in BINARY Fixed-Point, so I think
I must use a special library for this, for example the existing
"FixedPt"-library. But unfortunately, this library is not perfect enough
for my purpose.

Maybe this explains it better:
