# fast_double_parser
Fast function to parse strings containing decimal numbers into double-precision (binary64) floating-point values. That is, given the string "1.0e10", it should return a 64-bit floating-point value equal to 100. We do not sacrifice accuracy. The function will match exactly (down the smallest bit) the result of a standard function like strtod.

## Why should I expect this function to be faster?
