Signed Decimal Print, Double Precision

This document describes the 'Signed Decimal Print, Double Precision' subroutine (Digital-8-25-U-Sym) designed for the Basic PDP-8 with an ASR-33. The subroutine converts a two-word signed, double-precision binary number stored in memory into a seven-digit decimal representation.

Key features include: - Input: Uses the standard double-precision format. - Output: Provides seven decimal digits preceded by a space (positive) or minus sign (negative). The output format is customizable. - Requirements: Needs 86 core locations. - Performance: Output limited to 10 cps by the ASR-33. - Integration: The subroutine is provided in PAL III or MACRO-8 language and uses a straightforward JMS calling sequence.

The documentation includes a functional description, usage instructions, a comprehensive program listing, a flow chart, and a sample table of powers of ten.
