Reading/Writing hexadecimal floating-point numbers.
See: http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1256.pdf, pages 57-58. We slightly diverge from the standard and do not allow for the "floating-suffix," as the type inference of Haskell makes this unnecessary.

hf :: QuasiQuoter Source #
A quasiquoter for hexadecimal floating-point literals. See: http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1256.pdf, pages 57-58. We slightly diverge from the standard and do not allow for the "floating-suffix," as the type inference of Haskell makes this unnecessary.
Example:
{-# LANGUAGE QuasiQuotes #-} import Data.Numbers.FloatingHex f :: Double f = [hf|0x1.f44abd5aa7ca4p+25|]
With these definitions, f
will be equal to the number 6.5574266708245546e7
showHFloat :: RealFloat a => a -> ShowS Source #
Show a floating-point value in the hexadecimal format.
NB. While this function will print a faithful (i.e., correct) value, it is
not 100% compatible with the %a
modifier as found in the C's printf implementation.
