Is there an active project to develop arbitrary-precision floating point numbers for D?
I've got a little extra time at the moment and would like to contribute if I can. I've done some work in floating point arithmetic and would be willing to start/complete/add to/test/design/etc. such a project. What I hope NOT to do is to re-implement someone else's perfectly adequate code. If no such project exists I'd like to start one. If there are a bunch of half-finished attempts (I have one of those), let's pool our efforts. I know several contributors here have a strong interest and/or background in numerics. I'd like to hear inputs regarding: a) the merits (or lack) of having an arbitrary-precision floating point type b) the features and functions that should be included. Just to be clear -- I'm talking about a library addition here, not a change in the language. Paul
