This library is a reference implementation of [Dragonbox](other_files/Dragonbox.pdf) in C++.
Dragonbox is a float-to-string conversion algorithm based on a beautiful algorithm [Schubfach](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1luHhyQF9zKlM8yJ1nebU0OgVYhfC6CBN), developed by Raffaello Giulietti in 2017-2018. Dragonbox is further inspired by [Grisu](https://www.cs.tufts.edu/~nr/cs257/archive/florian-loitsch/printf.pdf) and [Grisu-Exact](https://github.com/jk-jeon/Grisu-Exact).

# Introduction
Dragonbox generates a pair of integers from a floating-point number: the decimal significand and the decimal exponent of the input floating-point number. These integers can then be used for string generation of decimal representation of the input floating-point number, the procedure commonly called ````ftoa```` or ````dtoa````.
