The assembler recognizes both the <span class="sc">ieee</span> floating-point instruction and
the hexadecimal floating-point instructions. The floating-point constructors
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">.float</span></samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">.single</span></samp>&rsquo;, and &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">.double</span></samp>&rsquo; always emit the
<span class="sc">ieee</span> format. To assemble hexadecimal floating-point constants the
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">.long</span></samp>&rsquo; and &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">.quad</span></samp>&rsquo; directives must be used.
