Yeah, it's also included in MASM32.  I found it in \masm\tutorial\fputute.  Good job with it!  :clap:

Thanks.

As you certainly have noticed, not everybody is using the MASM32 package. However, the FPU is available to everybody and the tutorial was thus, from its inception, always made available as a separate entity to ALL programmers. This notice was simply to indicate the change of venue.

I was recently reading the latest Intel manuals and noticed that a new FPU instruction (FISTTP) has been incorporated on chips which are capable of executing the SSE3 set of instructions. I have thus updated the SimplyFPU tutorial to reflect that addition and provided hand-coding guidelines for assemblers not yet supporting that instruction.

However, my current computer is still the first model of the P4 family and does not support the SSE3 instructions. I therefore could not verify if the information in the tutorial is entirely accurate. I would certainly appreciate if someone with proper hardware could confirm the accuracy.

The URL for the tutorial indicated in the first post of this topic is still valid.
