Personnel
gollark: It implements ternary on top of binary for non-evil reasons.
gollark: The upcoming PotatOS ISA™ actually uses "three's complement".
gollark: Two's complement is the fastest way if you have regular unsigned addition hardware IIR©, but BF does not have that.
gollark: Oh. Lookup tables. That is not one of the ways I was thinking of, but... sure?
gollark: How are you implementing trigononononononometric functions anyway?
