Usage Examples

  #include "bigfloatpt.h"

  int
  main(int argc, char** argv)
  {
    BigFloat a = 5.1;                 // Creates a BigFloat type with value 5 
    BigFloat b = 8;                   // Creates a BigFloat type with value 8 
    BigFloat c = a+b ;                // Add a + b and store in c. 
    cout << c;                        // Prints result to standard output. 
    if (is_zero(c))                   // Test for zero
      cout << "Result is 0\n"; 
    a = bigfloat(5);                  // Use LEDA type bigfloat
    b = integer(4);                   // Use LEDA type integer 
    c = a/b;
