Half-precision floating point
=============================
== Subject
PAS moments L0 data contains the following moments:
- density : int16_t
- velocity : int16_t * 3
- pressure_tensor : float16_t * 6
float16_t isn't a natural data type for common C/C++ compiler
We have to find an external library to handle them
== Solution
C software library was found in python numpy libraries.

Code : link:documents/halffloat.c[]
This code was rewritten, to suppress numpy dependencies, and integrated in:
