For all values, we compute a mantissa M and an exponent E.  The mantissa
is a base-100 representation of the value.  The exponent E determines
where to put the decimal point.

Each centimal digit of the mantissa is stored in a byte.  If the
value of the centimal digit is X (hence X>=0 and X<=99) then the
byte value will be 2*X+1 for every byte of the mantissa, except
for the last byte which will be 2*X+0.




If we assume all digits of the mantissa occur to the right of the
decimal point, then the exponent E is the power of one hundred
by which one must multiply the mantissa to recover the original 
value.

Examples:

For all values, we compute a mantissa M and an exponent E.  The mantissa
is a base-100 representation of the value.  The exponent E determines
where to put the decimal point.

Each centimal digit of the mantissa is stored in a byte.  If the
value of the centimal digit is X (hence X>=0 and X<=99) then the
byte value will be 2*X+1 for every byte of the mantissa, except
for the last byte which will be 2*X+0.  The mantissa must be the
minimum number of bytes necessary to represent the value; trailing
X==0 digits are omitted.  This means that the mantissa will never
contain a byte with the value 0x00.

If we assume all digits of the mantissa occur to the right of the
decimal point, then the exponent E is the power of one hundred
by which one must multiply the mantissa to recover the original 
value.
