"Primos"?
gcc has pure, I'm not sure that it's actually enforced, I think it's more of a hint to the optimiser so that it can optimise
when I put a function call in a boolean statement I rely on the short-circuiting
char *a; /* ... */ if ( a && strlen(a)>10 ) /* ... */ Bye. Jasen
I have a square root routine I implemented as part of an RMS detector in an MEGA 88 AVR (32-bits in, 16-bits out). I can post it somewhere if you're interested.
I've used the MSP430 too ... it's generally noisier from an RF POV, but I've always liked TI for reliability.

The square root might come in handy; I'd appreciate it. Please post somewhere or email to me, jjlarkin atthing highlandtechnology dthing com. How does it work... Newton?
One can always square root (or divide!) by successive approximation, if you have a multiply.

The one I had experience with was doing scientific computations not things like MRP. For a while, they were the best deal on processors that could do floating point.
Ok, here is the code. There is a square root routine and a ratio routine. I used it in an RMS volt-ohm meter about 5 years ago, assy program on an AVR Mega8.
