Hans-G?nter@24608 | 2 on signed integers, rational numbers, and floating-point numbers. |
Hans-G?nter@24608 | 3 There is no practical limit to the precision except the ones implied |
Hans-G?nter@24608 | 4 by the available memory in the machine GMP runs on. |
Hans-G?nter@24608 | 5 GMP has a rich set of functions, and the functions have a regular |
Hans-G?nter@24608 | 6 interface. |

Hans-G?nter@24608 | 8 The main target applications for GMP are cryptography applications |
Hans-G?nter@24608 | 9 and research, Internet security applications, algebra systems, |
