ABSTRACT:
Mantissa results of floating point operations are truncated to words of 24 bits each by storing the 64 bit mantissa result in a first address location of a random access memory, and storing binary ZEROs in the 48 least significant bit positions of a second address location of the random access memory. The mantissa result is truncated by addressing the high order 24 bits at the first address location and the 48 binary ZEROs at the second address location.
