NAME ecvt, fcvt -- output conversion
is called with a floating point number in fr0.
On exit, the number has been converted into a
string of ascii digits in a buffer pointed to by r0.
The number of digits produced is controlled
by a global variable "_ndigits".
Moreover, the position of the decimal point is
contained in r2: r2=0 means the d.p. is at the
left hand end of the string of digits;
r2>0 means the d.p. is within or to the right
The sign of the number is indicated by r1 (0 for +; 1 for -).
The low order digit has suffered decimal rounding
(i. e. may have been carried into).
Fcvt is identical to ecvt, except that the correct digit
has had decimal rounding for F-style output of the number
of digits specified by "_ndigits".
