Begin4 Title: hfloat Version: 2009-08-16 Entered-date: 2009-08-16 Description: hfloat stands for 'huge float'. It is a library package for calculations with floating point numbers of extreme precision. It is optimised for precisions of 1000...several million digits. hfloat uses the FFT multiplication from the fxt package which is available at http://www.jjj.de/fxt/. Several algorithms for the computation of Pi are implemented. The computations can be done in (almost) arbitrary radix. Example code for the usage of the library is in examples/ Keywords: bignum, arithmetic, FFT, Pi, 3.1415 Author: arndt@jjj.de (Joerg Arndt) Maintained-by: arndt@jjj.de (Joerg Arndt) Primary-site: http://www.jjj.de/hfloat/ Original-site: http://www.jjj.de/hfloat/ Platforms: Unix with a C++ compiler Copying-policy: GPL End
