Alan Gates commented on PIG-2764:
---------------------------------
I don't know of any good libraries. And everything Google turned up looked old
and unsupported. I took a quick crack at it (just the fixed point part, not
integrating with Pig's data type system). I'll attach it as a separate patch.
> Add a biginteger and bigdecimal type to pig
