Bill Lucas,
Motorola Richmond, VA

The math package in the ZIPfile attached to EDN BBS /DI_SIG #1570 allows 6805 mCs to perform unsigned, 32-bit math. The subroutines contain the source code for add, subtract, multiply, and divide routines.

Vladimir Bochev,
Institute of Informatics Sofia, Bulgaria
