Version 2 of BigFloat for Tcl

Updated 2004-12-06 18:03:55

Sarnold This is a work in progress for a library that handles floating-point numbers with (possibly) hundreds of digits, with full support of trigonometry, log, exp, pi, etc.

This is the renewal of MPA. The homepage is the same as of MPA : [L1 ].


LV Is the intent for this to be a tcl script only package; something that might be contributed to tcllib?


Sarnold Sure, I first asked if MPA could be contributed to tcllib, and after I realized there was an interest for it, I decided that MPA would become BigFloat for Tcl.

I am currently rewriting all MPA into one namespace called ::math::bigfloat and the name of the package should be bigfloat. There is a lot of work, but I think I will have done it for February 2005. Wait and see.
