Hi,

Thanks for the information.

I found the explanation at http://www.docstoc.com/docs/2844296/ARM-System-Developers-Guide

This book is about embedded processor. Page 225 explains how 'Unsigned 32/32-bit Divide by Newton-Raphson" and it takes >36 cycles.

Dear bobbym,

Would you mind giving me a example that uses "recip. mult method with newtons iteration"?

For example, 20/4?

For example   a/b    a is integer, b is integer

a/b = a x 1/b  ,   we call this reciprocal multiplication.

I would like to know if there is any method faster that Reciprocal Multiplication.

I know that we need to know the divisor in advance before proceeding Reciprocal Multiplication.

Please let me know.
