| | Bitstring vector to list conversion in Perl5
|
|
Anyone know of a super-efficient way in Perl5 to convert a sparse bitstring vector to a list of integer-offset values (just the 1-bits) in Perl5? That is, if you had some $v that was created like so: my $v; my @n = (...some sorted sparse list of (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

| | 8-bit floating-point number representations?
|

Anyone know of a good C library that efficiently implements conversion from a processor-native 'double' floating-point precision number to some standard form of an 8-bit floating-point number and back? And a Perl5 library to go with it? An array of (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) It's indeed the Nokia 8110. Some special version since it has an "open panel" with a spring via a button. Mine is highly manual. The phone itself sucks.
