Mpexpr works +much like Tcl's native 'expr', but does all calculations using an arbitrary +precision math package. Mpexpr numbers can be any number of digits, with any +decimal precision. Final precision is controlled by a Tcl variable +'mp_precision', which can be any reasonable integer, limiting only the +number of digits to the right of the decimal point. + +Mpformat works much like Tcl's 'format', except it formats multiple +precision numbers in a variety of formats. + +Mpexpr also includes most math functions provided by 'expr', as well +as several new functions. Mpexpr also supports Tcl variables and +nested evaluation, just like 'expr': + +WWW: http://www.neosoft.com/tcl/ftparchive/sorted/math/mpexpr-1.0 |
