Folks, One of the main feature requests during the multiprecision lib review was for a binary floating point type. There is now such a type in the sandbox under the "multiprecision.cpp_bin_float" directory - you will also need latest SVN Trunk to try this out. This new type is correctly rounded to nearest for all arithmetic operations plus binary-decimal conversions and sqrt. Minimal docs so far here: https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/multiprecision.cpp_bin_float/libs/mu... I'd welcome comments, and if folks would like to try and break it, that would be cool too ;-) Regards, John.
