Hi,
I am writing an implementation of the Brent-Salamin algorithm for
calculating pi. I want to be able to display potentially a large
number of decimal places in the result (hundreds at least). However I
am finding that even using long double values in my calculation gives
me only the first 50 or so decimal places. Is this a limitation of
long double that I am running into here?
Should I be using NSDecimal instead to do this kind of calculation? If
so, can anyone point me at a good example of its use as I am
struggling with how to use it?
Thanks,
Ian.
