Algorithms used for floating point operations

[abhijeetnvaidya]

Respected Sir,

I have downloaded the source codes for the floating point unit but am
not able to grasp the algorithms used to carry out the operations. So
if you could just give some reference about the underlying algorithms,
 I'll be very grateful to you.

Thanks in advance.
Yours Sincerely,
Abhijeet N. Vaidya
