Big Decimal Math
This unit provides a arbitrary precision BCD float number type. It can be used like any numeric type and supports: At least numbers between 10-2147483647 to 102147483647 with 2147483647 decimal digit precision; All standard arithmetic and comparison operators; Rounding functions (floor, ceil, to-even, ..); Some more advanced operations, e.g. power and sqrt.
Big Decimal Math
This unit provides an arbitrary precision BCD float number type. The usecase is performing a few arithmetic operations with the maximal possible accuracy and precision, e.g. calculating the sum of numbers from a text files, where the conversion from decimal input to binary floats would take more time than the calculation.
It can be used like any numeric type and supports:
- At least numbers between 10-2147483647 to 102147483647 with 2147483647 decimal digit precision
- All standard arithmetic and comparison operators
- Rounding functions (floor, ceil, to-even, ..)
- Some more advanced operations, e.g. power and sqrt
- Accurate and precise binary float (single/double/extended) to BCD float and string conversion
- ..
