								# SYNOPSIS

								#   AX_C_FLOAT_WORDS_BIGENDIAN([ACTION-IF-TRUE], [ACTION-IF-FALSE], [ACTION-IF-UNKNOWN])

								 | 
							
								# DESCRIPTION
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   Checks the ordering of words within a multi-word float. This check is
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   necessary because on some systems (e.g. certain ARM systems), the float
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   word ordering can be different from the byte ordering. In a multi-word
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   float context, "big-endian" implies that the word containing the sign
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   bit is found in the memory location with the lowest address. This
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   implementation was inspired by the AC_C_BIGENDIAN macro in autoconf.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   The endianness is detected by first compiling C code that contains a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   special double float value, then grepping the resulting object file for
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   certain strings of ASCII values. The double is specially crafted to have
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   a binary representation that corresponds with a simple string. In this
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   implementation, the string "noonsees" was selected because the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   individual word values ("noon" and "sees") are palindromes, thus making
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   this test byte-order agnostic. If grep finds the string "noonsees" in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   the object file, the target platform stores float words in big-endian
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   order. If grep finds "seesnoon", float words are in little-endian order.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   If neither value is found, the user is instructed to specify the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								#   ordering.
