The Floating-Point Number Generator Library is a small C library to generate and manipulate floating-point numbers with definite properties and constraints in the context of numerical software testing.

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

The FPNGlib is built and tested on a Linux system with the GNU C Compiler. It should be compilable with minimal modifications on other platforms provided a sufficiently recent C compiler supporting the ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (C99) standard is available.

FPNGlib uses the autotools for configuration, compilation and deployment. The standard procedure is therefore:

./configure
make
make install

You may need to use sudo with make install since the default installation directories are under /usr/local/.

To test the library before installing it, just run make check from the base directory. You may need to install the unit testing library Check beforehand.

The directory examples/ contains some programs illustrating the proper use of the library.
