I'm impressed by this - both Chris's and John's work.
Thank you. There's still a long way to go in terms of digits, but it's *definitely* a good start. <snip>
Boost has needed this for a long time, both integer and real. And now we have both. To be able to use the GMP and other packages optionally is a big bonus.
Yeah, for *real*! <snip>
Suggestions for examples?
Well, I did work out 8 examples for the original publication in the ACM. We could adapt some of these for big_number to lend a more example-oriented quick start to the hands-on user. Best regards, Chris.
