Summary: LongDecimal pre-alpha-0.22
Project: LongDecimal for numbers with fixed point
Version pre-alpha-0.22 has been uploaded. Install it using the gem-mechanism
gem install long-decimal
or
gem update long-decimal
(whatever is applicable in your case)
or go to the download page.
You can always find the newest version on RubyForge
http://rubyforge.org/projects/long-decimal/
This version is already quite usable. The elementary operations +, -, * and / as well as sqrt should work correctly already. There is also strong evidence that the transcendental functions exp, log and power are also working correctly, but some more testing is still desirable before going to alpha-version. A second test program has been added, which is running a large number of tests with random numbers as parameters.
The plan is to add some more tests and make this an alpha version within the next few days or maybe weeks, depending on the results of the tests. |
