(c) Replacing a part of floating-point operation instructions with double-precision
floating-point operation instructions using subroutine programs
The flow of a replacement program described in (b) can be regarded as one subroutine program.
Create a subroutine program for each floating-point operation instruction and then replace the original floating-
point operation instructions with the CALL(P) instruction so that the corresponding subroutine program is
called.
With this method, changes in the program are minimized, but the processing for calling subroutine programs
increases the scan time.
In addition, since conversions from double precision to single precision are performed for each instruction,
rounding-off errors generated during operations are larger than those in the replacement program described in
(b).
