The functions in this module offer fast unsafe operations that provide correct behavior only when the parameters are valid, i.e. when the position and length are valid for the string or byte sequence, and when integer and float quantities can converted between representations without error.

This module type defines octet encoding and decoding schemes for the various integer and floating point types.

Include this module to include operations single-octet types.

Use this functor to construct safe encoders and decoders.

Exception raised when conversion to binary16 or binary32 truncates the fractional part or overflows the exponent.

Use is_nan n to test whether n is not a number.

Use of_fp16_bits n to convert a binary16 format integer representation of IEEE-754 "half-precision" floating point number.

Use to_fp16_bits n to convert a floating point number into its binary16 format integer representation of IEEE-754 "half-precision" floating point. Raises Imprecise if conversion truncates the fractional part or overflows the exponent.

Use to_fp32_bits n to convert a floating point number into its binary32 format integer representation of IEEE-754 "single-precision" floating point. Raises Imprecise if conversion truncates the fractional part or overflows the exponent.

Use to_fp16_bits n to convert a floating point number into its binary16 format integer representation of IEEE-754 "half-precision" floating point. Fractional bits beyond the first ten are truncated. If the exponent is out of range, then infinity is returned. If n = nan then result is the distinguished binary16 form of a signaling NaN.
