EAE)

Revised: April 1975

Abstract: This collection of arithmetic routines overlays FRTS (DEC-

S8-LRTSA-A-PS 5/73) in the OS/8 FORTRAN IV system. It enables a

PDP-8/I (or classic PDP-8 with conditional assembly) to utilize its EAE

option. Approximately a 20% increase in overall execution speed can be

obtained with this overlay.

Version 2 corrects errors in the multiply and alignment routines.
