There is a simple module for Python 3 demonstrating the fused multiply-add operation which was build with simple `python3 setup.py build` under Linux [9].
Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
+1. Just tried it out, and apart from dropping a pretty little SystemError when I fat-finger the args wrong (a trivial matter of adding more argument checking), it looks good. Are there any possible consequences (not counting performance) of the fall-back? I don't understand all the code in what you linked to, but I think what's happening is that it goes to great lengths to avoid intermediate rounding, so the end result is always going to be the same. If that's the case, yeah, definite +1 on the proposal. ChrisA
