  • Patent number: 9244667
    Abstract: A system obtains first code that includes one or more lines of code, the lines of code including first information associated with one or more data types or one or more routine types. The system removes the first information from the lines of code; and generates one or more instructions that, when executed, enable the system to obtain the first information or second information. The second information is associated with at least one data type that is different than the one or more data types or at least one routine type that is different than the one or more routine types. The system modifies the lines of code based on the one or more instructions; generates second code based on the first code and the modified lines of code; and outputs the second code.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9146750
    Abstract: A system obtains code that includes sequences of code; identifies, within a first sequence of code and based on obtaining the code, a first routine that, when executed, enables an array of values to be generated. The array of values is associated with a variable included within the first routine. The system determines whether the routine includes a particular term, and identifies, within the routine, a first identifier when the routine includes the particular term. The first identifier corresponds to a second sequence of code that identifies a first data structure that stores information that identifies one or more second routines. The system identifies, within the data structure, a second routine based on the particular term and a second identifier corresponding to the first routine; executes, using the variable, the second routine to generate a result; and outputs the result based on executing the second routine.

  • Patent number: 8495114
    Abstract: In a computational device, a method is provided for determining attributes for results of arithmetic operations with fixed-point numbers, in an environment for fixed-point algorithm development. An indication is received of a plurality of possible word lengths to be used for storing a plurality of digits representing a result of arithmetic operation with fixed-point numbers. An indication is received of how a placement of a radix point is to be determined in the plurality of digits representing the results of the arithmetic operation with fixed-point numbers. When calculating a selected fixed-point arithmetic operation, one of the word lengths in the plurality of possible word lengths is employed for storing the plurality of digits representing a result of the selected fixed-point arithmetic operation. A placement of a radix point in the plurality of digits representing the result of the selected fixed-point arithmetic operation is based on the received indication of how the radix point is to be determined.
