| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 1 The MPFR library is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 2 computations with correct rounding. |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 3 MPFR has continuously been supported by the INRIA and the current main |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 4 authors come from the Caramba and AriC project-teams at Loria |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 5 (Nancy, France) and LIP (Lyon, France) respectively. |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 6 MPFR is based on the GMP multiple-precision library. |

| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 8 The main goal of MPFR is to provide a library for multiple-precision |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 9 floating-point computation which is both efficient and has a |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 10 well-defined semantics. |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 11 It copies the good ideas from the ANSI/IEEE-754 standard for |
| Hans-G?nter@24922 | 12 double-precision floating-point arithmetic (53-bit significand). |
