** About MPFR [#y731ae61]
MPFR (http://www.mpfr.org) is the acronym of Multiple Precision Floating-Point Reliable Library. MPFR is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point computations with current rounding. This C library has been continuously supported by INRIA (French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation), and this library is currently maintained by groups of scientists at Loria (Lorraine Research Laboratory in Computer Science and its Applications, Nancy, France) and at LIP (Laboratory of Parallel Computing, Lyon, France).

The goal of MPFR is to provide a C library for multiple-precision floating-point computation. This library is aimed to be efficient and to have a well-defined semantics. MPFR has copied the idea of double precision floating-point arithmetic (53-bit significand) from the ANSI/IEEE-754 standard.
