Hi Akshay, but wouldn't a library with bindings to MPFR (using CFFI) not make more sense? Maxima (and I suppose matlisp as well) have to implement their own bigfloats data type anyway whereas the GMP integration has the chance of being tightly and transparently integrated with the underlying bignum implementation of SBCL. I could only see an advantage when tightly coupling it with CMUCL's quad-floats. Regs, Stephan |
