  • changing names per the naming-convention issue#6
    • make :floatingpoint, to_hex_floatingpoint(), to_dec_floatingpoint() aliases to :convertToString, convertToHexString(), convertToDecimalString()
    • make :raw754, hexstr754_from_double(), binstr754_from_double(), hexstr754_to_double(), binstr754_to_double() aliases to :internalString, convertToInternalHexString(), convertToInternalBinaryString(), convertFromInternalHexString(), convertFromInternalBinaryString()
    • for convertToDecimalString() and convertToHexString, add in optional conversionSpecification -- it specifiers the number of digits after the fractional-point.
