NOTE: My code depends on the fmod() function, and one reader reports that the MINIX version of fmod() produces incorrect results.

nicely programmed – it simplified the concept with a good coding style. Thanks a lot!

ikilobo,

This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with converting floating-point numbers to binary strings (and I can’t say I understand the question anyhow). Sorry.

i want to generate randomly n bits number that divide into W word, where W=m/n
and then i want operate it by adding/xor, multiplying, the process that i mean look below:

input m, n1, n2; m=4, n1=12, n2=9;
assumed: n1>=n2;

n1=12
A[]=[[1001],[0011],[1010]]
n2=9
B[]=[[0001],[0011],[1010]]
three ZERO digit MSB in B[] automatic generate..

so the calculate follow the rule:
A[]=[[1001],[0011],[1010]]
B[]=[[0001],[1010],[0010]]
_______________________xor
C[]=[[1000],[1001],[1000]]

xor per block, how can i implementing it in C, where n1 and n2 up to 100 bit or more?
