------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Fixed point I/O
-- ---------------
-- The following documents implementation details of the fixed point
-- input/output routines in the GNAT run time. The first part describes
-- general properties of fixed point types as defined by the Ada 95 standard,
-- including the Information Systems Annex.
-- Subsequently these are reduced to implementation constraints and the impact
-- of these constraints on a few possible approaches to I/O are given.
-- Based on this analysis, a specific implementation is selected for use in
-- the GNAT run time. Finally, the chosen algorithm is analyzed numerically in
-- order to provide user-level documentation on limits for range and precision
-- of fixed point types as well as accuracy of input/output conversions.
-- -------------------------------------------
-- - General Properties of Fixed Point Types -
-- -------------------------------------------
-- Operations on fixed point values, other than input and output, are not
-- important for the purposes of this document. Only the set of values that a
-- fixed point type can represent and the input and output operations are
-- significant.
-- Values
-- ------
-- Set set of values of a fixed point type comprise the integral
-- multiples of a number called the small of the type. The small can
-- either be a power of ten, a power of two or (if the implementation
-- allows) an arbitrary strictly positive real value.
-- Implementations need to support fixed-point types with a precision
-- of at least 24 bits, and (in order to comply with the Information
-- Systems Annex) decimal types need to support at least digits 18.
-- For the rest, however, no requirements exist for the minimal small
-- and range that need to be supported.
-- Operations
-- ----------
-- 'Image and 'Wide_Image (see RM 3.5(34))
-- These attributes return a decimal real literal best approximating
-- the value (rounded away from zero if halfway between) with a
-- single leading character that is either a minus sign or a space,
-- one or more digits before the decimal point (with no redundant
-- leading zeros), a decimal point, and N digits after the decimal
-- point. For a subtype S, the value of N is S'Aft, the smallest
-- positive integer such that (10**N)*S'Delta is greater or equal to
-- one, see RM 3.5.10(5).
-- For an arbitrary small, this means large number arithmetic needs
-- to be performed.
-- Put (see RM A.10.9(22-26))
-- The requirements for Put add no extra constraints over the image
-- attributes, although it would be nice to be able to output more
-- than S'Aft digits after the decimal point for values of subtype S.
-- 'Value and 'Wide_Value attribute (RM 3.5(40-55))
-- Since the input can be given in any base in the range 2..16,
-- accurate conversion to a fixed point number may require
-- arbitrary precision arithmetic if there is no limit on the
-- magnitude of the small of the fixed point type.
-- Get (see RM A.10.9(12-21))
-- The requirements for Get are identical to those of the Value
-- attribute.
-- ------------------------------
-- - Implementation Constraints -
-- ------------------------------
-- The requirements listed above for the input/output operations lead to
-- significant complexity, if no constraints are put on supported smalls.
-- Implementation Strategies
-- -------------------------
-- * Float arithmetic
-- * Arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic
-- * Fixed-precision integer arithmetic
-- Although it seems convenient to convert fixed point numbers to floating-
-- point and then print them, this leads to a number of restrictions.
-- The first one is precision. The widest floating-point type generally
-- available has 53 bits of mantissa. This means that Fine_Delta cannot
-- be less than 2.0**(-53).
-- In GNAT, Fine_Delta is 2.0**(-63), and Duration for example is a
-- 64-bit type. It would still be possible to use multi-precision
-- floating-point to perform calculations using longer mantissas,
-- but this is a much harder approach.
-- The base conversions needed for input and output of (non-decimal)
-- fixed point types can be seen as pairs of integer multiplications
-- and divisions.
-- Arbitrary-precision integer arithmetic would be suitable for the job
-- at hand, but has the draw-back that it is very heavy implementation-wise.
-- Especially in embedded systems, where fixed point types are often used,
-- it may not be desirable to require large amounts of storage and time
-- for fixed I/O operations.
-- Fixed-precision integer arithmetic has the advantage of simplicity and
-- speed. For the most common fixed point types this would be a perfect
-- solution. The downside however may be a too limited set of acceptable
-- fixed point types.
-- Extra Precision
-- ---------------
-- Using a scaled divide which truncates and returns a remainder R,
-- another E trailing digits can be calculated by computing the value
-- (R * (10.0**E)) / Z using another scaled divide. This procedure
-- can be repeated to compute an arbitrary number of digits in linear
-- time and storage. The last scaled divide should be rounded, with
-- a possible carry propagating to the more significant digits, to
-- ensure correct rounding of the unit in the last place.
-- An extension of this technique is to limit the value of Q to 9 decimal
-- digits, since 32-bit integers can be much more efficient than 64-bit
-- integers to output.

-- exponent indication and mandatory decimals after and before the
-- decimal point. A string with length
-- Fore + Aft + Exp + Extra_Layout_Space
-- is always long enough for formatting any fixed point number
-- Implementation of Put routines
-- The following section describes a specific implementation choice for
-- performing base conversions needed for output of values of a fixed
-- point type T with small T'Small. The goal is to be able to output
-- all values of types with a precision of 64 bits and a delta of at
-- least 2.0**(-63), as these are current GNAT limitations already.
-- The chosen algorithm uses fixed precision integer arithmetic for
-- reasons of simplicity and efficiency. It is important to understand
-- in what ways the most simple and accurate approach to fixed point I/O
-- is limiting, before considering more complicated schemes.
-- Without loss of generality assume T has a range (-2.0**63) * T'Small
-- .. (2.0**63 - 1) * T'Small, and is output with Aft digits after the
-- decimal point and T'Fore - 1 before. If T'Small is integer, or
-- 1.0 / T'Small is integer, let S = T'Small and E = 0. For other T'Small,
-- let S and E be integers such that S / 10**E best approximates T'Small
-- and S is in the range 10**17 .. 10**18 - 1. The extra decimal scaling
-- factor 10**E can be trivially handled during final output, by adjusting
-- the decimal point or exponent.
-- Convert a value X * S of type T to a 64-bit integer value Q equal
-- to 10.0**D * (X * S) rounded to the nearest integer.
-- This conversion is a scaled integer divide of the form
-- Q := (X * Y) / Z,
-- where all variables are 64-bit signed integers using 2's complement,
-- and both the multiplication and division are done using full
-- intermediate precision. The final decimal value to be output is
-- Q * 10**(E-D)
-- This value can be written to the output file or to the result string
-- according to the format described in RM A.3.10. The details of this
-- operation are omitted here.
-- A 64-bit value can contain all integers with 18 decimal digits, but
-- not all with 19 decimal digits. If the total number of requested output
-- digits (Fore - 1) + Aft is greater than 18, for purposes of the
-- conversion Aft is adjusted to 18 - (Fore - 1). In that case, or
-- when Fore > 19, trailing zeros can complete the output after writing
-- the first 18 significant digits, or the technique described in the
-- next section can be used.
-- The final expression for D is
-- D := Integer'Max (-18, Integer'Min (Aft, 18 - (Fore - 1)));
-- For Y and Z the following expressions can be derived:
-- Q / (10.0**D) = X * S
-- Q = X * S * (10.0**D) = (X * Y) / Z
-- S * 10.0**D = Y / Z;
-- If S is an integer greater than or equal to one, then Fore must be at
-- least 20 in order to print T'First, which is at most -2.0**63.
-- This means D < 0, so use
-- (1) Y = -S and Z = -10**(-D)
-- If 1.0 / S is an integer greater than one, use
-- (2) Y = -10**D and Z = -(1.0 / S), for D >= 0
-- or
-- (3) Y = 1 and Z = (1.0 / S) * 10**(-D), for D < 0
-- Negative values are used for nominator Y and denominator Z, so that S
-- can have a maximum value of 2.0**63 and a minimum of 2.0**(-63).
-- For Z in -1 .. -9, Fore will still be 20, and D will be negative, as
-- (-2.0**63) / -9 is greater than 10**18. In these cases there is room
-- in the denominator for the extra decimal scaling required, so case (3)
-- will not overflow.
