Extended-exponent floating-point numbers
This project helps scientists and engineers work with extremely large or extremely small numbers that would typically exceed the limits of standard computer representation, without losing computational speed. It takes your existing numerical calculations and allows them to handle values far beyond what standard `Float64` or even `Float16` can manage. This is for researchers in fields like physics or geophysics who deal with numerical outputs that span astronomical scales.
No commits in the last 6 months.
Use this if your numerical calculations involve numbers so vast or tiny that standard floating-point types cause overflow or underflow errors, but you don't need increased precision (more decimal places) and want to maintain computational efficiency.
Not ideal if your primary problem is insufficient decimal precision in your calculations; in that case, you should look for packages that offer extended-precision arithmetic like `BigFloat`.
