/*`[h5 Using Boost.Multiprecision `cpp_float` for numerical calculations with high precision.]
The Boost.Multiprecision library can be used for computations requiring precision
exceeding that of standard built-in types such as float, double
and long double. For extended-precision calculations, Boost.Multiprecision
supplies a template data type called cpp_dec_float. The number of decimal
digits of precision is fixed at compile-time via template parameter.
To use these floating-point types and constants, we need some includes:
*/
#include <boost/math/constants/constants.hpp>
#include <boost/multiprecision/cpp_dec_float.hpp>
// using boost::multiprecision::cpp_dec_float
#include <iostream>
#include <limits>
/*` So now we can demonstrate with some trivial calculations:
*/
//] //[big_seventh_example_1]
int main()
{
//[big_seventh_example_2
/*`Using `typedef cpp_dec_float_50` hides the complexity of multiprecision,
allows us to define variables with 50 decimal digit precision just like built-in `double`.
*/
using boost::multiprecision::cpp_dec_float_50;
cpp_dec_float_50 seventh = cpp_dec_float_50(1) / 7; // 1 / 7
/*`By default, output would only show the standard 6 decimal digits,
so set precision to show all 50 significant digits, including any trailing zeros.
*/
std::cout.precision(std::numeric_limits<cpp_dec_float_50>::digits10);
std::cout << std::showpoint << std::endl; // Append any trailing zeros.
std::cout << seventh << std::endl;
/*`which outputs:
0.14285714285714285714285714285714285714285714285714
We can also use Boost.Math __constants like [pi],
guaranteed to be initialized with the very last bit of precision for the floating-point type.
*/
std::cout << "pi = " << boost::math::constants::pi<cpp_dec_float_50>() << std::endl;
cpp_dec_float_50 circumference = boost::math::constants::pi<cpp_dec_float_50>() * 2 * seventh;
