I'm pleased to announce the release of GMPY2 2.0.0. GMPY2 provides access to 
the GMP/MPIR, MPFR, and MPC arbitrary precision arithmetic libraries.

Highlights
----------

* Support for correctly rounded arbitrary precision real arithmetic, including 
trigonometric, logarithmic, exponential, and special functions.

* Support for correctly rounded arbitrary precision complex arithmetic, 
including trigonometric, logarithmic, and exponential functions.

* Support for contexts that control precision, rounding modes, exponent limits, 
and the behavior of exceptions.

* Support for various pseudoprime tests. (Based on code by David Cleaver.)

* Support for a mutable (!) integer type that supports the slice syntax to 
read/write individual bits. Read-only slicing is supported on the standard 
integer type.

Compatibility with GMPY
-----------------------

GMPY2 is the successor to GMPY. The behavior of some functions in GMPY 
conflicted with the expected behavior of real/complex arithmetic. In GMPY, 
sqrt() returned an integer result. In GMPY2, sqrt() returns a real/complex 
value and isqrt() returns an integer. The development versions of mpmath and 
Sympy support GMPY2.
