Description-en: division via fixed-point multiplication by inverse
On modern CPUs and GPUs integer division is several times slower than
multiplication. FXdiv implements an algorithm to replace an integer division
with a multiplication and two shifts. This algorithm improves performance when
an application performs repeated divisions by the same divisor.
.
This is a header-only library.
