The MPFR library is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point computations with exact rounding (also called correct rounding). It is based on the GMP multiple-precision library and should replace the MPF class in further releases of GMP. GCC >= 4.2 requires MPFR.

You can get the latest source code by Subversion at INRIAGForge:
|
|
|
|
svn checkout svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/trunk mpfr
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
svn checkout https://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/trunk mpfr
|
|
|
|
(the last argument can be any directory name). You can use
|
|
|
|
svn ls svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/branches
|
|
svn ls svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/tags
|
|
|
|
to get the list of branches or tags (releases), then checkout a
|
|
particular branch or tag instead of the trunk. Alternatively, you
|
|
can now use the "https:" scheme (a.k.a. DAV) instead of "svn:".
