// Other fast adder techniques also used. (See :PH: problems.)
/// Multipliers
//
// The multiplication hardware presented above is much slower than

//
// "Real" n-bit Multiplier Features
//
// Multiplication done in one or two cycles (assume one cycle).
// Uses higher-radix (say 4) Booth recoding or something similar.
// Enough adders are provided so that product computed in one cycle.
// These adders can add n numbers quickly without the cost of n CLA's.
// Cost may be something like 3/2 n ripple adders plus 1 CLA.
// Delay through each adder is only a handful of gates.
// Adders may be connected as a tree, so that number of adders
// from input to output is proportional to log n (rather than n).
/// Dividers
//
// The division hardware presented above is slower than hardware used
// in real processors.
//
// Division trickier than multiplication because result of step i
// needed for i+1. This precludes the tree structures used in
// fast multipliers.
//
// FP Dividers in general-purpose processors typically take 10-20 cycles.
//
// Several division techniques used. Examples:
// SRT: Sweeney, Robertson, Tocher
// Newton Iteration
// Goldschmidt's Algorithm
