9.6 For More Information

The HLA Standard Library Reference Manual contains lots of information about the HLA Standard Library's extended precision arithmetic capabilities. You'll also want to check out the source code for several of the HLA Standard Library routines to see how to do various extended precision operations (that properly set the flags once the computation is complete). The HLA Standard Library source code also covers the extended precision I/O operations that do not appear in this chapter.

Donald Knuth's The Art of Computer Programming, Volume Two: Seminumerical Algorithms contains a lot of useful information about decimal arithmetic and extended precision arithmetic, though this text is generic and doesn't describe how to do this in x86 assembly language.
