I intend to orphan the mpmath package. The package description is: Mpmath is a pure-Python library for multiprecision floating-point arithmetic. It provides an extensive set of transcendental functions, unlimited exponent sizes, complex numbers, interval arithmetic, numerical integration and differentiation, root-finding, linear algebra, and much more. Almost any calculation can be performed just as well at 10-digit or 1000-digit precision, and in many cases mpmath implements asymptotically fast algorithms that scale well for extremely high precision work. . If available, mpmath will (optionally) use gmpy to speed up high precision operations. If matplotlib is available, mpmath also provides a convenient plotting interface. . Its features include: . * Fair performance -- typically 10-100x faster than Python's decimal library * Transcendental functions -- all functions from Python's math and cmath modules, plus a few more like gamma, factorial, erf * Complex numbers -- with support for transcendental functions * Directed rounding -- floor, ceiling, down, up, half-down, half-up, half-even * Unlimited exponents -- no overflow or underflow . This package contains the documentation for mpmath Python module.
