ANSI C suggestions

[David Boone]

The need for single precision routines is almost mandatory.
On the pdp-11 the conversion from single precison to double precision
involves only pushing an extra word of zero. On my 68k systems, with
software handling the floating point, it takes around 12 instructions
to perform the conversion (IEEE format). 

Don't say buy a floating point co-processor. I should not have to cover up
with hardware botches in the language.
