34 -- Fixed point I/O
35 -- ---------------
37 -- The following documents implementation details of the fixed point
38 -- input/output routines in the GNAT run time. The first part describes
39 -- general properties of fixed point types as defined by the Ada 95 standard,
40 -- including the Information Systems Annex.
42 -- Subsequently these are reduced to implementation constraints and the impact
43 -- of these constraints on a few possible approaches to I/O are given.
44 -- Based on this analysis, a specific implementation is selected for use in
45 -- the GNAT run time. Finally, the chosen algorithm is analyzed numerically in
46 -- order to provide user-level documentation on limits for range and precision
47 -- of fixed point types as well as accuracy of input/output conversions.
49 -- -------------------------------------------
50 -- - General Properties of Fixed Point Types -
51 -- -------------------------------------------
53 -- Operations on fixed point values, other than input and output, are not
54 -- important for the purposes of this document. Only the set of values that a
55 -- fixed point type can represent and the input and output operations are
56 -- significant.
58 -- Values
59 -- ------
61 -- Set set of values of a fixed point type comprise the integral
62 -- multiples of a number called the small of the type. The small can
63 -- either be a power of ten, a power of two or (if the implementation
64 -- allows) an arbitrary strictly positive real value.
66 -- Implementations need to support fixed-point types with a precision
67 -- of at least 24 bits, and (in order to comply with the Information
68 -- Systems Annex) decimal types need to support at least digits 18.
69 -- For the rest, however, no requirements exist for the minimal small
70 -- and range that need to be supported.
72 -- Operations
73 -- ----------
75 -- 'Image and 'Wide_Image (see RM 3.5(34))
77 -- These attributes return a decimal real literal best approximating
78 -- the value (rounded away from zero if halfway between) with a
79 -- single leading character that is either a minus sign or a space,
80 -- one or more digits before the decimal point (with no redundant
81 -- leading zeros), a decimal point, and N digits after the decimal
82 -- point. For a subtype S, the value of N is S'Aft, the smallest
83 -- positive integer such that (10**N)*S'Delta is greater or equal to
84 -- one, see RM 3.5.10(5).
86 -- For an arbitrary small, this means large number arithmetic needs
87 -- to be performed.
89 -- Put (see RM A.10.9(22-26))
91 -- The requirements for Put add no extra constraints over the image
92 -- attributes, although it would be nice to be able to output more
93 -- than S'Aft digits after the decimal point for values of subtype S.
95 -- 'Value and 'Wide_Value attribute (RM 3.5(40-55))
97 -- Since the input can be given in any base in the range 2..16,
98 -- accurate conversion to a fixed point number may require
99 -- arbitrary precision arithmetic if there is no limit on the
100 -- magnitude of the small of the fixed point type.
102 -- Get (see RM A.10.9(12-21))
104 -- The requirements for Get are identical to those of the Value
105 -- attribute.
107 -- ------------------------------
108 -- - Implementation Constraints -
109 -- ------------------------------
111 -- The requirements listed above for the input/output operations lead to
112 -- significant complexity, if no constraints are put on supported smalls.
114 -- Implementation Strategies
115 -- -------------------------
117 -- * Float arithmetic
118 -- * Arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic
119 -- * Fixed-precision integer arithmetic
121 -- Although it seems convenient to convert fixed point numbers to floating-
122 -- point and then print them, this leads to a number of restrictions.
123 -- The first one is precision. The widest floating-point type generally
124 -- available has 53 bits of mantissa. This means that Fine_Delta cannot
125 -- be less than 2.0**(-53).
127 -- In GNAT, Fine_Delta is 2.0**(-63), and Duration for example is a
128 -- 64-bit type. It would still be possible to use multi-precision
129 -- floating-point to perform calculations using longer mantissas,
130 -- but this is a much harder approach.
132 -- The base conversions needed for input and output of (non-decimal)
133 -- fixed point types can be seen as pairs of integer multiplications
134 -- and divisions.
136 -- Arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic would be suitable for the job
137 -- at hand, but has the draw-back that it is very heavy implementation-wise.
138 -- Especially in embedded systems, where fixed point types are often used,
139 -- it may not be desirable to require large amounts of storage and time
140 -- for fixed I/O operations.
142 -- Fixed-precision integer arithmetic has the advantage of simplicity and
143 -- speed. For the most common fixed point types this would be a perfect
144 -- solution. The downside however may be a too limited set of acceptable
145 -- fixed point types.
147 -- Extra Precision
148 -- ---------------
150 -- Using a scaled divide which truncates and returns a remainder R,
151 -- another E trailing digits can be calculated by computing the value
152 -- (R * (10.0**E)) / Z using another scaled divide. This procedure
153 -- can be repeated to compute an arbitrary number of digits in linear
154 -- time and storage. The last scaled divide should be rounded, with
155 -- a possible carry propagating to the more significant digits, to
156 -- ensure correct rounding of the unit in the last place.
158 -- An extension of this technique is to limit the value of Q to 9 decimal
159 -- digits, since 32-bit integers can be much more efficient than 64-bit
160 -- integers to output.

186 -- is always long enough for formatting any fixed point number.
188 -- Implementation of Put routines
190 -- The following section describes a specific implementation choice for
191 -- performing base conversions needed for output of values of a fixed
192 -- point type T with small T'Small. The goal is to be able to output
193 -- all values of types with a precision of 64 bits and a delta of at
194 -- least 2.0**(-63), as these are current GNAT limitations already.
196 -- The chosen algorithm uses fixed precision integer arithmetic for
197 -- reasons of simplicity and efficiency. It is important to understand
198 -- in what ways the most simple and accurate approach to fixed point I/O
199 -- is limiting, before considering more complicated schemes.
201 -- Without loss of generality assume T has a range (-2.0**63) * T'Small
202 -- .. (2.0**63 - 1) * T'Small, and is output with Aft digits after the
203 -- decimal point and T'Fore - 1 before. If T'Small is integer, or
204 -- 1.0 / T'Small is integer, let S = T'Small and E = 0. For other T'Small,
205 -- let S and E be integers such that S / 10**E best approximates T'Small
206 -- and S is in the range 10**17 .. 10**18 - 1. The extra decimal scaling
207 -- factor 10**E can be trivially handled during final output, by adjusting
208 -- the decimal point or exponent.
210 -- Convert a value X * S of type T to a 64-bit integer value Q equal
211 -- to 10.0**D * (X * S) rounded to the nearest integer.
212 -- This conversion is a scaled integer divide of the form
214 -- Q := (X * Y) / Z,
216 -- where all variables are 64-bit signed integers using 2's complement,
217 -- and both the multiplication and division are done using full
218 -- intermediate precision. The final decimal value to be output is
220 -- Q * 10**(E-D)
222 -- This value can be written to the output file or to the result string
223 -- according to the format described in RM A.3.10. The details of this
224 -- operation are omitted here.
226 -- A 64-bit value can contain all integers with 18 decimal digits, but
227 -- not all with 19 decimal digits. If the total number of requested output
228 -- digits (Fore - 1) + Aft is greater than 18, for purposes of the
229 -- conversion Aft is adjusted to 18 - (Fore - 1). In that case, or
230 -- when Fore > 19, trailing zeros can complete the output after writing
231 -- the first 18 significant digits, or the technique described in the
232 -- next section can be used.
234 -- The final expression for D is
236 -- D := Integer'Max (-18, Integer'Min (Aft, 18 - (Fore - 1)));
238 -- For Y and Z the following expressions can be derived:
240 -- Q / (10.0**D) = X * S
242 -- Q = X * S * (10.0**D) = (X * Y) / Z
244 -- S * 10.0**D = Y / Z;
246 -- If S is an integer greater than or equal to one, then Fore must be at
247 -- least 20 in order to print T'First, which is at most -2.0**63.
248 -- This means D < 0, so use
250 -- (1) Y = -S and Z = -10**(-D).
252 -- If 1.0 / S is an integer greater than one, use
254 -- (2) Y = -10**D and Z = -(1.0 / S), for D >= 0
256 -- or
258 -- (3) Y = 1 and Z = (1.0 / S) * 10**(-D), for D < 0
260 -- Negative values are used for nominator Y and denominator Z, so that S
261 -- can have a maximum value of 2.0**63 and a minimum of 2.0**(-63).
262 -- For Z in -1 .. -9, Fore will still be 20, and D will be negative, as
263 -- (-2.0**63) / -9 is greater than 10**18. In these cases there is room
264 -- in the denominator for the extra decimal scaling required, so case (3)

626 -- of Aft = 1, the following optimization would be desirable.
627 -- Count the number Z of leading zero bits in the integer

629 -- Aft + Z * 1000 / 3322 digits in the first scaled division.
