    Thanks man, I’ll look into it when I have the time. This should work on all IEEE compliant systems right?

      Yes, but… “leftmost” in this case means MSB-sidemost, so little-endian systems will start sorting from the MSB only after loading the full value in a register; if you try sorting directly from memory in binary chunks smaller than the float size, first locate where the MSB is stored.
