Hello, We are thinking about switching from 8051 to Cortex M3. At the moment everything is written in assembler. Now I simply would like to know, how many assembler statements a Cortex M3 CPU will take to evaluate a square root from a 48 Bit integer value. Is this (square root of a 48 Bit integer) included in a math library and a nobrainer or is only floating point supported. I am new and just evaluating, what the switch means for us, so I would highly appreciate to get an answer to this question.
Thanks a lot.

I never worked with a 8051, however I can assure you that the M3 is lighting fast compared to it. I am confident that you'd be delighted with the calculation speed.
I meant: "lightening fast", of course.
No; I think you really meant, "lightning fast"...?
