(Damn slow...) > I was led to believe that the DSP does fixed-point math. Am I incorrect? How about a preview of the features in the 1.0 array processing library? Matrix multiplication? Inversion? Eigenanalysis? Decompositions? (Is LINPACK being implemented on the DSP ;-))? FFTs and spectral analysis seem like a natural application for the chip. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pat Flynn, CS, Mich.
