//! A crate that provides support for half-precision 16-bit floating point types. //! //! This crate provides the [`f16`] type, which is an implementation of the IEEE 754-2008 standard //! [`binary16`] a.k.a `half` floating point type. This 16-bit floating point type is intended for //! efficient storage where the full range and precision of a larger floating point value is not //! required. This is especially useful for image storage formats. //! //! This crate also provides a [`bf16`] type, an alternative 16-bit floating point format. The //! [`bfloat16`] format is a truncated IEEE 754 standard `binary32` float that preserves the //! exponent to allow the same range as [`f32`] but with only 8 bits of precision (instead of 11 //! bits for [`f16`]). See the [`bf16`] type for details. //! //! Because [`f16`] and [`bf16`] are primarily for efficient storage, floating point operations such //! as addition, multiplication, etc. are not implemented by hardware. While this crate does provide //! the appropriate trait implementations for basic operations, they each convert the value to //! [`f32`] before performing the operation and then back afterward. When performing complex //! arithmetic, manually convert to and from [`f32`] before and after to reduce repeated conversions //! for each operation. //! //! This crate also provides a [`slice`][mod@slice] module for zero-copy in-place conversions of //! [`u16`] slices to both [`f16`] and [`bf16`], as well as efficient vectorized conversions of //! larger buffers of floating point values to and from these half formats. //! //! The crate uses `#[no_std]` by default, so can be used in embedded environments without using the //! Rust [`std`] library. A `std` feature to enable support for the standard library is available, //! see the [Cargo Features](#cargo-features) section below. //! //! A [`prelude`] module is provided for easy importing of available utility traits. //! //! # Serialization //! //! When the `serde` feature is enabled, [`f16`] and [`bf16`] will be serialized as a newtype of //! [`u16`] by default. In binary formats this is ideal, as it will generally use just two bytes for //! storage. For string formats like JSON, however, this isn't as useful, and due to design //! limitations of serde, it's not possible for the default `Serialize` implementation to support //! different serialization for different formats. //! //! Instead, it's up to the containter type of the floats to control how it is serialized. This can //! easily be controlled when using the derive macros using `#[serde(serialize_with="")]` //! attributes. For both [`f16`] and [`bf16`] a `serialize_as_f32` and `serialize_as_string` are //! provided for use with this attribute. //! //! Deserialization of both float types supports deserializing from the default serialization, //! strings, and `f32`/`f64` values, so no additional work is required. //! //! # Cargo Features //! //! This crate supports a number of optional cargo features. None of these features are enabled by //! default, even `std`. //! //! - **`use-intrinsics`** -- Use [`core::arch`] hardware intrinsics for `f16` and `bf16` conversions //! if available on the compiler target. This feature currently only works on nightly Rust //! until the corresponding intrinsics are stabilized. //! //! When this feature is enabled and the hardware supports it, the functions and traits in the //! [`slice`][mod@slice] module will use vectorized SIMD intructions for increased efficiency. //! //! By default, without this feature, conversions are done only in software, which will also be //! the fallback if the target does not have hardware support. Note that without the `std` //! feature enabled, no runtime CPU feature detection is used, so the hardware support is only //! compiled if the compiler target supports the CPU feature. //! //! - **`alloc`** -- Enable use of the [`alloc`] crate when not using the `std` library. //! //! Among other functions, this enables the [`vec`] module, which contains zero-copy //! conversions for the [`Vec`] type. This allows fast conversion between raw `Vec` bits and //! `Vec` or `Vec` arrays, and vice versa. //! //! - **`std`** -- Enable features that depend on the Rust [`std`] library. This also enables the //! `alloc` feature automatically. //! //! Enabling the `std` feature also enables runtime CPU feature detection when the //! `use-intrsincis` feature is also enabled. Without this feature detection, intrinsics are only //! used when compiler target supports the target feature. //! //! - **`serde`** -- Adds support for the [`serde`] crate by implementing [`Serialize`] and //! [`Deserialize`] traits for both [`f16`] and [`bf16`]. //! //! - **`num-traits`** -- Adds support for the [`num-traits`] crate by implementing [`ToPrimitive`], //! [`FromPrimitive`], [`AsPrimitive`], [`Num`], [`Float`], [`FloatCore`], and [`Bounded`] traits //! for both [`f16`] and [`bf16`]. //! //! - **`bytemuck`** -- Adds support for the [`bytemuck`] crate by implementing [`Zeroable`] and //! [`Pod`] traits for both [`f16`] and [`bf16`]. //! //! - **`zerocopy`** -- Adds support for the [`zerocopy`] crate by implementing [`AsBytes`] and //! [`FromBytes`] traits for both [`f16`] and [`bf16`]. //! //! [`alloc`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/alloc/ //! [`std`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ //!
