Previously these had some comments (but were in hex, so this was really 
needed). For some of them it is obvious but I suggest to stay with the 
comments.

Let's say explictily "1/2" for HALF and 2^24 for RADIX etc.

Similar above for TWO5 etc. Either add a comment before that the 
following are TWOX with 2^X or add it for each comment...
