Quadmath.jl
This is a Julia interface to libquadmath, providing a Float128
type corresponding to the IEEE754 binary128 floating point format.
Support
Quadmath currently works on x86_64 Linux and macOS.
- It may require a new-ish version of gcc which supports
__float128
type. - It has not been tested on 32 bit Linux.
- I have not had any luck getting it to work on Windows. It's probably something to do with the calling convention: if someone figures it out I would be very grateful.
- It does not work on ARM due to the lack of libquadmath support for that platform.
