     1.4 +The MPFR library is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point
     1.5 +computations with correct rounding.
     1.6 +MPFR has continuously been supported by the INRIA and the current main
     1.7 +authors come from the Caramba and AriC project-teams at Loria
     1.8 +(Nancy, France) and LIP (Lyon, France) respectively.
     1.9 +MPFR is based on the GMP multiple-precision library.

    1.11 +The main goal of MPFR is to provide a library for multiple-precision
    1.12 +floating-point computation which is both efficient and has a
    1.13 +well-defined semantics.
    1.14 +It copies the good ideas from the ANSI/IEEE-754 standard for
    1.15 +double-precision floating-point arithmetic (53-bit significand).
