using doubles in the kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear all,
Is there any reason why you should not use doubles and floats in the
kernel? I remember that someome said that you should not use floating
point types but I can't remember where. I need to use floating point
number since I'm implementing a neural network (executing in kernel
space because of performance reasons) and it is alot easier to implement
this with floating point numbers.

cheers,
lars
