1 9.50.2 VAX Floating Point
1 -------------------------
1 
1 Conversion of flonums to floating point is correct, and compatible with
1 previous assemblers.  Rounding is towards zero if the remainder is
1 exactly half the least significant bit.
1 
1    'D', 'F', 'G' and 'H' floating point formats are understood.
1 
1    Immediate floating literals (_e.g._  'S`$6.9') are rendered
1 correctly.  Again, rounding is towards zero in the boundary case.
1 
1    The '.float' directive produces 'f' format numbers.  The '.double'
1 directive produces 'd' format numbers.
