Floating point is implemented in software using "programmed operators", except on the SDS 9300 which has hardware floating point. All floating point numbers are stored as 48-bit double words. Single precision has a 24-bit signed fraction and a 9-bit signed exponent, double precision has a 39-bit fraction and a 9-bit exponent.
