* Package name : python-gfloat Version : 0.1 Upstream Contact: Andrew Fitzgibbon <a...@graphcore.ai> * URL : https://github.com/graphcore-research/gfloat * License : Expat Programming Lang: Python Description : Python module of generic floating point encode/decode logic An implementation of generic floating point encode/decode logic, handling various current and proposed floating point types: . - IEEE 754: Binary16, Binary32 - OCP Float8: E5M2, E4M3 - IEEE WG P3109: P{p} for p in 1..7 - OCP MX Formats: E2M1, M2M3, E3M2, E8M0, INT8, and the MX block formats. . The library favours readability and extensibility over speed - for fast implementations of these datatypes see, for example, ml_dtypes, bitstring, MX PyTorch Emulation Library. I intend to maintain this as part of the Debian Python Team. It's needed to run tests for the newest version of python-bitstring. Scott K
