Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the
xint
bundle.
Version: 1.4e 2021-05-05
License: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- Logarithms (natural and to the base 10), exponentials and
powers now available up to 62 digits.
- Trigonometric functions also available at high degree of
accuracy up to 62 digits.
- Special fast mode at 8 digits or less for the above mentioned
functions, at a lowered accuracy standard (correct rounding
perhaps only in about 95% of cases), but largely precise enough
for tasks such as plots.
Also taking this opportunity to announce xintsession which
has been available for a few weeks.
Try out "etex xintsession" or, if available,
"rlwrap etex xintsession" on the command line.
