1This is bcmath, a library of arbitrary precision math routines.
2These routines, in a different form, are the routines that to
3the arbitrary precision calculations for GNU bc and GNU dc.

5This library is provided to make these routines useful in a
6larger context with less restrictions on the use of them.

8These routines do not duplicate functionality of the GNU gmp
9library.  gmp is similar, but the actual computation is different.
