Considered for inclusion in py3k, development at: http://svn.python.org/view/python/branches/py3k-cdecimal/ Supported Python Versions: -------------------------- All versions from 2.5 - 3.2 are supported. What's new: ------------ 1) Significantly faster thread local contexts: New speed penalty is about 16%. 2) Various compatibility fixes for context.copy(), initialization from DefaultContext and more. 3) IEEEContext() factory function for creating interchange format contexts. libmpdec: ========= About: ------ A fast arbitrary precision library implementing Mike Cowlishaw's (IBM's) General Decimal Arithmetic Specification. What's new: ------------ 1) Support for non-x64 compilers with __uint128_t (Example: gcc/ppc64). 2) General support for non-x64 64-bit compilers. 3) Support for legacy compilers without uint64_t. Bug fixes: ----------- 1) Fix for mpd_qround_to_int, which did not handle digits exceeding the context precision correctly in all cases. 2) In rare corner cases Underflow was not set in transcendental functions. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations/
