--  Fixed point I/O
--  ---------------

--  The following documents implementation details of the fixed point
--  input/output routines in the GNAT run time. The first part describes
--  general properties of fixed point types as defined by the Ada 95 standard,
--  including the Information Systems Annex.

--  Subsequently these are reduced to implementation constraints and the impact
--  of these constraints on a few possible approaches to I/O are given.
--  Based on this analysis, a specific implementation is selected for use in
--  the GNAT run time. Finally, the chosen algorithm is analyzed numerically in
--  order to provide user-level documentation on limits for range and precision
--  of fixed point types as well as accuracy of input/output conversions.

--  -------------------------------------------
--  - General Properties of Fixed Point Types -
--  -------------------------------------------

--  Operations on fixed point values, other than input and output, are not
--  important for the purposes of this document. Only the set of values that a
--  fixed point type can represent and the input and output operations are
--  significant.

--  Values
--  ------

--  Set set of values of a fixed point type comprise the integral
--  multiples of a number called the small of the type. The small can
--  either be a power of ten, a power of two or (if the implementation
--  allows) an arbitrary strictly positive real value.

--  Implementations need to support fixed-point types with a precision
--  of at least 24 bits, and (in order to comply with the Information
--  Systems Annex) decimal types need to support at least digits 18.
--  For the rest, however, no requirements exist for the minimal small
--  and range that need to be supported.

--  Operations
--  ----------

--  'Image and 'Wide_Image (see RM 3.5(34))

--          These attributes return a decimal real literal best approximating
--          the value (rounded away from zero if halfway between) with a
--          single leading character that is either a minus sign or a space,
--          one or more digits before the decimal point (with no redundant
--          leading zeros), a decimal point, and N digits after the decimal
--          point. For a subtype S, the value of N is S'Aft, the smallest
--          positive integer such that (10**N)*S'Delta is greater or equal to
--          one, see RM 3.5.10(5).

--          For an arbitrary small, this means large number arithmetic needs
--          to be performed.

--  Put (see RM A.10.9(22-26))

--          The requirements for Put add no extra constraints over the image
--          attributes, although it would be nice to be able to output more
--          than S'Aft digits after the decimal point for values of subtype S.

--  'Value and 'Wide_Value attribute (RM 3.5(40-55))

--          Since the input can be given in any base in the range 2..16,
--          accurate conversion to a fixed point number may require
--          arbitrary precision arithmetic if there is no limit on the
--          magnitude of the small of the fixed point type.

--  Get (see RM A.10.9(12-21))

--          The requirements for Get are identical to those of the Value
--          attribute.

--  ------------------------------
--  - Implementation Constraints -
--  ------------------------------

--  The requirements listed above for the input/output operations lead to
--  significant complexity, if no constraints are put on supported smalls.

--  Implementation Strategies
--  -------------------------

--  * Float arithmetic
--  * Arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic
--  * Fixed-precision integer arithmetic

--  Although it seems convenient to convert fixed point numbers to floating-
--  point and then print them, this leads to a number of restrictions.
--  The first one is precision. The widest floating-point type generally
--  available has 53 bits of mantissa. This means that Fine_Delta cannot
--  be less than 2.0**(-53).

--  In GNAT, Fine_Delta is 2.0**(-63), and Duration for example is a
--  64-bit type. It would still be possible to use multi-precision
--  floating-point to perform calculations using longer mantissas,
--  but this is a much harder approach.

--  The base conversions needed for input and output of (non-decimal)
--  fixed point types can be seen as pairs of integer multiplications
--  and divisions.

--  Arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic would be suitable for the job
--  at hand, but has the draw-back that it is very heavy implementation-wise.
--  Especially in embedded systems, where fixed point types are often used,
--  it may not be desirable to require large amounts of storage and time
--  for fixed I/O operations.

--  Fixed-precision integer arithmetic has the advantage of simplicity and
--  speed. For the most common fixed point types this would be a perfect
--  solution. The downside however may be a too limited set of acceptable
--  fixed point types.

--  Extra Precision
--  ---------------

--  Using a scaled divide which truncates and returns a remainder R,
--  another E trailing digits can be calculated by computing the value
--  (R * (10.0**E)) / Z using another scaled divide. This procedure
--  can be repeated to compute an arbitrary number of digits in linear
--  time and storage. The last scaled divide should be rounded, with
--  a possible carry propagating to the more significant digits, to
--  ensure correct rounding of the unit in the last place.

--  An extension of this technique is to limit the value of Q to 9 decimal
--  digits, since 32-bit integers can be much more efficient than 64-bit
--  integers to output.

   --  not a power of two, and for types that require more precision than

   --  decimal point. A string with length

   --    Fore + Aft + Exp + Extra_Layout_Space

   --  is always long enough for formatting any fixed point number.

   --  Implementation of Put routines

   --  The following section describes a specific implementation choice for
   --  performing base conversions needed for output of values of a fixed
   --  point type T with small T'Small. The goal is to be able to output
   --  all values of types with a precision of 64 bits and a delta of at
   --  least 2.0**(-63), as these are current GNAT limitations already.

   --  The chosen algorithm uses fixed precision integer arithmetic for
   --  reasons of simplicity and efficiency. It is important to understand
   --  in what ways the most simple and accurate approach to fixed point I/O
   --  is limiting, before considering more complicated schemes.

   --  Without loss of generality assume T has a range (-2.0**63) * T'Small
   --  .. (2.0**63 - 1) * T'Small, and is output with Aft digits after the
   --  decimal point and T'Fore - 1 before. If T'Small is integer, or
   --  1.0 / T'Small is integer, let S = T'Small and E = 0. For other T'Small,
   --  let S and E be integers such that S / 10**E best approximates T'Small
   --  and S is in the range 10**17 .. 10**18 - 1. The extra decimal scaling
   --  factor 10**E can be trivially handled during final output, by adjusting
   --  the decimal point or exponent.

   --  Convert a value X * S of type T to a 64-bit integer value Q equal
   --  to 10.0**D * (X * S) rounded to the nearest integer.
   --  This conversion is a scaled integer divide of the form

   --     Q := (X * Y) / Z,

   --  where all variables are 64-bit signed integers using 2's complement,
   --  and both the multiplication and division are done using full
   --  intermediate precision. The final decimal value to be output is

   --     Q * 10**(E-D)

   --  This value can be written to the output file or to the result string
   --  according to the format described in RM A.3.10. The details of this
   --  operation are omitted here.

   --  A 64-bit value can contain all integers with 18 decimal digits, but
   --  not all with 19 decimal digits. If the total number of requested output
   --  digits (Fore - 1) + Aft is greater than 18, for purposes of the
   --  conversion Aft is adjusted to 18 - (Fore - 1). In that case, or
   --  when Fore > 19, trailing zeros can complete the output after writing
   --  the first 18 significant digits, or the technique described in the
   --  next section can be used.

   --  The final expression for D is

   --     D :=  Integer'Max (-18, Integer'Min (Aft, 18 - (Fore - 1)));

   --  For Y and Z the following expressions can be derived:

   --     Q / (10.0**D) = X * S

   --     Q = X * S * (10.0**D) = (X * Y) / Z

   --     S * 10.0**D = Y / Z;

   --  If S is an integer greater than or equal to one, then Fore must be at
   --  least 20 in order to print T'First, which is at most -2.0**63.
   --  This means D < 0, so use

   --    (1)   Y = -S and Z = -10**(-D).

   --  If 1.0 / S is an integer greater than one, use

   --    (2)   Y = -10**D and Z = -(1.0 / S), for D >= 0

   --  or

   --    (3)   Y = 1 and Z = (1.0 / S) * 10**(-D), for D < 0

   --  Negative values are used for nominator Y and denominator Z, so that S
   --  can have a maximum value of 2.0**63 and a minimum of 2.0**(-63).
   --  For Z in -1 .. -9, Fore will still be 20, and D will be negative, as
   --  (-2.0**63) / -9 is greater than 10**18. In these cases there is room
   --  in the denominator for the extra decimal scaling required, so case (3)
   --  will not overflow.
