real function slamch (cmach)
SLAMCH real function slamc3 (a, b)
SLAMC3

SLAMC3 Purpose:

!> SLAMC3  is intended to force  A  and  B  to be stored prior to doing
!> the addition of  A  and  B ,  for use in situations where optimizers
!> might hold one of these in a register.

SLAMCH

Purpose:

!>
!> SLAMCH determines single precision machine parameters.
!> 

Parameters

CMACH
!>          CMACH is CHARACTER*1
!>          Specifies the value to be returned by SLAMCH:
!>          = 'E' or 'e',   SLAMCH := eps
!>          = 'S' or 's ,   SLAMCH := sfmin
!>          = 'B' or 'b',   SLAMCH := base
!>          = 'P' or 'p',   SLAMCH := eps*base
!>          = 'N' or 'n',   SLAMCH := t
!>          = 'R' or 'r',   SLAMCH := rnd
!>          = 'M' or 'm',   SLAMCH := emin
!>          = 'U' or 'u',   SLAMCH := rmin
!>          = 'L' or 'l',   SLAMCH := emax
!>          = 'O' or 'o',   SLAMCH := rmax
!>          where
!>          eps   = relative machine precision
!>          sfmin = safe minimum, such that 1/sfmin does not overflow
!>          base  = base of the machine
!>          prec  = eps*base
!>          t     = number of (base) digits in the mantissa
!>          rnd   = 1.0 when rounding occurs in addition, 0.0 otherwise
!>          emin  = minimum exponent before (gradual) underflow
!>          rmin  = underflow threshold - base**(emin-1)
!>          emax  = largest exponent before overflow
!>          rmax  = overflow threshold  - (base**emax)*(1-eps)
!>
