Provides methods that permit use of floating-point numbers of arbitrary length. The following apply to all methods, except as noted:
The object
$f
remains unchanged.
All methods except
fcmp
return a number string (
nstr
) of the form
/[+-]\d+E[+-]\d+/
, with embedded whitespace ignored.
A return value of
NaN
indicates either that an input parameter was "Not a Number" or that an illegal operation was attempted.
A similar default scale value is computed for square roots.
