Re: Simple/Fast Algorithm for binary logarithm in C (on ARM7)

You've gotten some responses already, but here's another you might
consider looking at. It's one of the chapters of a book that Analog
used to give away (don't know if they still do) to customers. Great
book. Anyway, this chapter covers the logarithm for the ADSP-21xx DSP
processor, but it includes a good description about the whys and
wherefores as well as a coded example (which requires a little bit of
learning of the isntruction set if you want to understand each and
every step of the code -- but that isn't too hard.) Here is the
chapter:

Thanks for that link, Jonathan. I had also found it doing one more
internet search this afternoon, but didn't yet find the time to look at
it more deeply (which I'll surely do, however).
