The gawk-mpfr package contains the gawk MPFR shared library extension for accessing the MPFR library. Please compare this to using gawk's -M option to perform all calculations using MPFR.
This is gawk-mpfr. This extension provides access to MPFR library functions, but please compare this to using gawk's -M flag. Please consult the bundled texinfo documentation for further information.
To build this package from git sources:
autoreconf -i && configure && make && make check && make install
Jürgen Kahrs wrote the mpfr extension in 2006. Andrew Schorr has contributed some patches.
