Abstract
Determining a table output of a table representing a hierarchical tree for an integer valued function includes determining an address from a table input. A subset of a memory is selected according to the address, where the memory represents the hierarchical tree and the subset represents a subtree of the hierarchical tree. Bit fields are selected from the subset, and bits are extracted from the bit fields. A table output is determined from the extracted bits.
