Re: A quicky: converting long to int in asm
Is there some special significance to the number 1.25 ? That happens
to be exactly 5/4, which makes things real easy... The assemblerish
way to do this sort of thing would be shift a copy of the number left
twice, add the original number, then shift right twice.
Why solve a general problem when you can deal with a special case?
