Aurelien Jarno <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: AFAIK, this "mixed-endian" format is only used on little endian ARM (old-ABI only).
That is true that IEEE 754 does not specify any format. I used the big and little endian code as a template to add the "ARM format", hence IEEE in the name. "mixed-endian" is the term usually used to describe this format in the ARM community. I am not opposed to any other name. OTOH, if you consider that IEEE does not specify any format, "IEEE, little-endian" and "IEEE, big-endian" are also not correct. ---------- nosy: +aurel32 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1762561> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
