Folks,
I'd like to ask for a formal review of the Multiprecision Arithmetic Library, currently in the sandbox.
When you do something like "get_constant_pi()", I see you are "warm-caching" the result from the first computation. Great. Just to double-check... I see the static bool flag, right? It's warm-cached, right? Yes. OK. Please confirm: Would you like to "seed" common constants such as pi, e, sqrt2, ln2, etc. with a known string representation of, say, a few hundred digits? Or is reading the string slower than computing the value? Best regards, Chris.
