Honored Contributori need to define a float data , which it is 16 bits , how can i define it , when i try float a; then my results usually be odd. too big or too small , not the data i want to get . so i think there may be fixed definition for float just like the interay data in altera we define them alt_16.:)
thanks a lot
Honored ContributorWhy would you want to do that?
Honored Contributorbecause i have a fft code that run on int data , but i want to operat with floating data ,so i must change the data type , the int data it defined by alt_16, but in C, if i define a data in float ,it is 32 bit , so the number of bit is different ,, ........when i do so , the result of floating data is not what i want , so i thought the problem may be come from the definition .. whether i am wrong.
Honored ContributorSunjie,
I missed the part about the NIOS IDE interface. Sorry about that. I would think that this type question would be better answered in the NIOS Forum section, rather then in the "Hardware" type sections that are mostly in here. Good luck, AvatarHonored Contributorok ,thanks anyway , best wishes for you:)
Honored ContributorI think you're on your own with this problem. Some GPUs have a 16-bit floating point data type, but the C compiler for Nios does not.
I'm sure that, if you built a C++ library for 16-bit floating point, other people would be interested in it too.
