Crenshaw has written pretty extensively on numerical programming
without regard to fixed-point implementation.  Sometimes he seems
overly-long-winded, but he usually tries to come up with "intuitional"
explanations with which to "sanity-check" solutions.
I thought his series on mathematical optimization in particular was
pretty informative, even if he did get "lost" along the way. (Tip:
be sure you find his "second round" on that topic before you
implement his algorithm.)
