1 Introduction to MPFR
**********************
MPFR is a portable library written in C for arbitrary precision
arithmetic on floating-point numbers. It is based on the GNU MP library.
It aims to extend the class of floating-point numbers provided by the
GNU MP library by a precise semantics. The main differences with the
`mpf' class from GNU MP are:
* the `mpfr' code is portable, i.e. the result of any operation does
not depend (or should not) on the machine word size
`mp_bits_per_limb' (32 or 64 on most machines);
* the precision in bits can be set exactly to any valid value for
each variable (including very small precision);
* `mpfr' provides the four rounding modes from the IEEE 754-1985
standard.
In particular, with a precision of 53 bits, `mpfr' should be able to
exactly reproduce all computations with double-precision machine
floating-point numbers (`double' type in C), except the default
exponent range is much wider and subnormal numbers are not implemented
but can be emulated.
This version of MPFR is released under the GNU Lesser General Public
License. It is permitted to link MPFR to non-free programs, as long as
when distributing them the MPFR source code and a means to re-link with
a modified MPFR library is provided.
1.1 How to Use This Manual
==========================
Everyone should read *Note MPFR Basics::. If you need to install the
library yourself, you need to read *Note Installing MPFR::, too.
The rest of the manual can be used for later reference, although it
is probably a good idea to glance through it.

2 Installing MPFR
*****************
2.1 How to Install
==================
Here are the steps needed to install the library on Unix systems (more
details are provided in the `INSTALL' file):
1. To build MPFR, you first have to install GNU MP (version 4.1 or
higher) on your computer. You need a C compiler, preferably GCC,
but any reasonable compiler should work. And you need a standard
Unix `make' program, plus some other standard Unix utility
programs.
2. In the MPFR build directory, type `./configure'
This will prepare the build and setup the options according to
your system. If you get error messages, you might check that you
use the same compiler and compile options as for GNU MP (see the
`INSTALL' file).
3. `make'
This will compile MPFR, and create a library archive file
`libmpfr.a'. A dynamic library may be produced too (see
configure).
4. `make check'
This will make sure MPFR was built correctly. If you get error
messages, please report this to `mpfr@loria.fr'. (*Note Reporting
Bugs::, for information on what to include in useful bug reports.)
5. `make install'
This will copy the files `mpfr.h' and `mpf2mpfr.h' to the directory
`/usr/local/include', the file `libmpfr.a' to the directory
`/usr/local/lib', and the file `mpfr.info' to the directory
`/usr/local/share/info' (or if you passed the `--prefix' option to
`configure', using the prefix directory given as argument to
`--prefix' instead of `/usr/local').
2.2 Other `make' Targets
========================
There are some other useful make targets:
* `mpfr.info' or `info'
Create an info version of the manual, in `mpfr.info'.
* `mpfr.dvi' or `dvi'
Create a DVI version of the manual, in `mpfr.dvi'.
* `mpfr.ps'
Create a Postscript version of the manual, in `mpfr.ps'.
* `clean'
Delete all object files and archive files, but not the
configuration files.
* `distclean'
Delete all files not included in the distribution.
* `uninstall'
Delete all files copied by `make install'.
2.3 Known Build Problems
========================
MPFR suffers from all bugs from the GNU MP library, plus many more.
Please report other problems to `mpfr@loria.fr'. *Note Reporting
Bugs::. Some bug fixes are available on the MPFR web page
`http://www.mpfr.org/'.
2.4 Getting the Latest Version of MPFR
======================================
The latest version of MPFR is available from `http://www.mpfr.org/'.

3 Reporting Bugs
****************
If you think you have found a bug in the MPFR library, first have a
look on the MPFR web page `http://www.mpfr.org/': perhaps this bug is
already known, in which case you may find there a workaround for it.
Otherwise, please investigate and report it. We have made this library
available to you, and it is not to ask too much from you, to ask you to
report the bugs that you find.
There are a few things you should think about when you put your bug
report together.
You have to send us a test case that makes it possible for us to
reproduce the bug. Include instructions on how to run the test case.
You also have to explain what is wrong; if you get a crash, or if
the results printed are incorrect and in that case, in what way.
Please include compiler version information in your bug report. This
can be extracted using `cc -V' on some machines, or, if you're using
gcc, `gcc -v'. Also, include the output from `uname -a' and the MPFR
version (the GMP version may be useful too).
If your bug report is good, we will do our best to help you to get a
corrected version of the library; if the bug report is poor, we won't
do anything about it (aside of chiding you to send better bug reports).
Send your bug report to: `mpfr@loria.fr'.
If you think something in this manual is unclear, or downright
incorrect, or if the language needs to be improved, please send a note
to the same address.

4 MPFR Basics
*************
All declarations needed to use MPFR are collected in the include file
`mpfr.h'. It is designed to work with both C and C++ compilers. You
should include that file in any program using the MPFR library:
#include <mpfr.h>
4.1 Nomenclature and Types
==========================
A "floating-point number" or "float" for short, is an arbitrary
precision mantissa with a limited precision exponent. The C data type
for such objects is `mpfr_t' (internally defined as a one-element array
of a structure, and `mpfr_ptr' is the C data type representing a
pointer to this structure). A floating-point number can have three
special values: Not-a-Number (NaN) or plus or minus Infinity. NaN
represents an uninitialized object, the result of an invalid operation
(like 0 divided by 0), or a value that cannot be determined (like
+Infinity minus +Infinity). Moreover, like in the IEEE 754-1985
standard, zero is signed, i.e. there are both +0 and -0; the behavior
is the same as in the IEEE 754-1985 standard and it is generalized to
the other functions supported by MPFR.
The "precision" is the number of bits used to represent the mantissa of
a floating-point number; the corresponding C data type is `mp_prec_t'.
The precision can be any integer between `MPFR_PREC_MIN' and
`MPFR_PREC_MAX'. In the current implementation, `MPFR_PREC_MIN' is
equal to 2.
The "rounding mode" specifies the way to round the result of a
floating-point operation, in case the exact result can not be
represented exactly in the destination mantissa; the corresponding C
data type is `mp_rnd_t'.
A "limb" means the part of a multi-precision number that fits in a
single word. (We chose this word because a limb of the human body is
analogous to a digit, only larger, and containing several digits.)
Normally a limb contains 32 or 64 bits. The C data type for a limb is
`mp_limb_t'.
4.2 Function Classes
====================
There is only one class of functions in the MPFR library:
1. Functions for floating-point arithmetic, with names beginning with
`mpfr_'. The associated type is `mpfr_t'.
4.3 MPFR Variable Conventions
=============================
As a general rule, all MPFR functions expect output arguments before
input arguments. This notation is based on an analogy with the
assignment operator.
MPFR allows you to use the same variable for both input and output
in the same expression. For example, the main function for
floating-point multiplication, `mpfr_mul', can be used like this:
`mpfr_mul (x, x, x, rnd_mode)'. This computes the square of X with
rounding mode `rnd_mode' and puts the result back in X.
Before you can assign to an MPFR variable, you need to initialize it
by calling one of the special initialization functions. When you're
done with a variable, you need to clear it out, using one of the
functions for that purpose.
A variable should only be initialized once, or at least cleared out
between each initialization. After a variable has been initialized, it
may be assigned to any number of times.
For efficiency reasons, avoid to initialize and clear out a variable
in loops. Instead, initialize it before entering the loop, and clear
it out after the loop has exited.
You don't need to be concerned about allocating additional space for
MPFR variables, since any variable has a mantissa of fixed size. Hence
unless you change its precision, or clear and reinitialize it, a
floating-point variable will have the same allocated space during all
its life.
4.4 Rounding Modes
==================
The following four rounding modes are supported:
* `GMP_RNDN': round to nearest
* `GMP_RNDZ': round towards zero
* `GMP_RNDU': round towards plus infinity
* `GMP_RNDD': round towards minus infinity
The `round to nearest' mode works as in the IEEE 754-1985 standard:
in case the number to be rounded lies exactly in the middle of two
representable numbers, it is rounded to the one with the least
significant bit set to zero. For example, the number 5/2, which is
represented by (10.1) in binary, is rounded to (10.0)=2 with a
precision of two bits, and not to (11.0)=3. This rule avoids the
"drift" phenomenon mentioned by Knuth in volume 2 of The Art of
Computer Programming (Section 4.2.2).
Most MPFR functions take as first argument the destination variable,
as second and following arguments the input variables, as last argument
a rounding mode, and have a return value of type `int', called the
"ternary value". The value stored in the destination variable is
correctly rounded, i.e. MPFR behaves as if it computed the result with
an infinite precision, then rounded it to the precision of this
variable. The input variables are regarded as exact (in particular,
their precision does not affect the result).
As a consequence, in case of a non-zero real rounded result, the
error on the result is less or equal to 1/2 ulp (unit in the last
place) of the target in the rounding to nearest mode, and less than 1
ulp of the target in the directed rounding modes (a ulp is the weight
of the least significant represented bit of the target after rounding).
Unless documented otherwise, functions returning an `int' return a
ternary value. If the ternary value is zero, it means that the value
stored in the destination variable is the exact result of the
corresponding mathematical function. If the ternary value is positive
(resp. negative), it means the value stored in the destination variable
is greater (resp. lower) than the exact result. For example with the
`GMP_RNDU' rounding mode, the ternary value is usually positive, except
when the result is exact, in which case it is zero. In the case of an
infinite result, it is considered as inexact when it was obtained by
overflow, and exact otherwise. A NaN result (Not-a-Number) always
corresponds to an exact return value. The opposite of a returned
ternary value is guaranteed to be representable in an `int'.
Unless documented otherwise, functions returning a `1' (or any other
value specified in this manual) for special cases (like `acos(0)')
should return an overflow or an underflow if `1' is not representable
in the current exponent range.
4.5 Floating-Point Values on Special Numbers
============================================
This section specifies the floating-point values (of type `mpfr_t')
returned by MPFR functions. For functions returning several values (like
`mpfr_sin_cos'), the rules apply to each result separately.
Functions can have one or several input arguments. An input point is
a mapping from these input arguments to the set of the MPFR numbers.
When none of its components are NaN, an input point can also be seen as
a tuple in the extended real numbers (the set of the real numbers with
both infinities).
When the input point is in the domain of the mathematical function,
the result is rounded as described in Section "Rounding Modes" (but see
below for the specification of the sign of an exact zero). Otherwise
the general rules from this section apply unless stated otherwise in
the description of the MPFR function (*Note MPFR Interface::).
When the input point is not in the domain of the mathematical
function but is in its closure in the extended real numbers and the
function can be extended by continuity, the result is the obtained
limit. Examples: `mpfr_hypot' on (+Inf,0) gives +Inf. But `mpfr_pow'
cannot be defined on (1,+Inf) using this rule, as one can find
sequences (X_N,Y_N) such that X_N goes to 1, Y_N goes to +Inf and X_N
to the Y_N goes to any positive value when N goes to the infinity.
When the input point is in the closure of the domain of the
mathematical function and an input argument is +0 (resp. -0), one
considers the limit when the corresponding argument approaches 0 from
above (resp. below). If the limit is not defined (e.g., `mpfr_log' on
-0), the behavior must be specified in the description of the MPFR
function.
When the result is equal to 0, its sign is determined by considering
the limit as if the input point were not in the domain: If one
approaches 0 from above (resp. below), the result is +0 (resp. -0). In
the other cases, the sign must be specified in the description of the
MPFR function. Example: `mpfr_sin' on +0 gives +0.
When the input point is not in the closure of the domain of the
function, the result is NaN. Example: `mpfr_sqrt' on -17 gives NaN.
When an input argument is NaN, the result is NaN, possibly except
when a partial function is constant on the finite floating-point
numbers; such a case is always explicitly specified in *Note MPFR
Interface::. Example: `mpfr_hypot' on (NaN,0) gives NaN, but
`mpfr_hypot' on (NaN,+Inf) gives +Inf (as specified in *Note Special
Functions::), since for any finite input X, `mpfr_hypot' on (X,+Inf)
gives +Inf.
4.6 Exceptions
==============
MPFR supports 5 exception types:
* Underflow: An underflow occurs when the exact result of a function
is a non-zero real number and the result obtained after the
rounding, assuming an unbounded exponent range (for the rounding),
has an exponent smaller than the minimum exponent of the current
range. In the round-to-nearest mode, the halfway case is rounded
toward zero.
Note: This is not the single definition of the underflow. MPFR
chooses to consider the underflow after rounding. The underflow
before rounding can also be defined. For instance, consider a
function that has the exact result 7 multiplied by two to the power
E-4, where E is the smallest exponent (for a mantissa between 1/2
and 1) in the current range, with a 2-bit target precision and
rounding towards plus infinity. The exact result has the exponent
E-1. With the underflow before rounding, such a function call
would yield an underflow, as E-1 is outside the current exponent
range. However, MPFR first considers the rounded result assuming
an unbounded exponent range. The exact result cannot be
represented exactly in precision 2, and here, it is rounded to 0.5
times 2 to E, which is representable in the current exponent
range. As a consequence, this will not yield an underflow in MPFR.
* Overflow: An overflow occurs when the exact result of a function
is a non-zero real number and the result obtained after the
rounding, assuming an unbounded exponent range (for the rounding),
has an exponent larger than the maximum exponent of the current
range. In the round-to-nearest mode, the result is infinite.
* NaN: A NaN exception occurs when the result of a function is a NaN.
* Inexact: An inexact exception occurs when the result of a function
cannot be represented exactly and must be rounded.
* Range error: A range exception occurs when a function that does
not return a MPFR number (such as comparisons and conversions to
an integer) has an invalid result (e.g. an argument is NaN in
`mpfr_cmp' or in a conversion to an integer).
MPFR has a global flag for each exception, which can be cleared, set
or tested by functions described in *Note Exception Related Functions::.
Differences with the ISO C99 standard:
* In C, only quiet NaNs are specified, and a NaN propagation does not
raise an invalid exception. Unless explicitly stated otherwise,
MPFR sets the NaN flag whenever a NaN is generated, even when a
NaN is propagated (e.g. in NaN + NaN), as if all NaNs were
signaling.
* An invalid exception in C corresponds to either a NaN exception or
a range error in MPFR.

5 MPFR Interface
****************
The floating-point functions expect arguments of type `mpfr_t'.
The MPFR floating-point functions have an interface that is similar
to the GNU MP integer functions. The function prefix for
floating-point operations is `mpfr_'.
There is one significant characteristic of floating-point numbers
that has motivated a difference between this function class and other
GNU MP function classes: the inherent inexactness of floating-point
arithmetic. The user has to specify the precision for each variable.
A computation that assigns a variable will take place with the
precision of the assigned variable; the cost of that computation should
not depend from the precision of variables used as input (on average).
The semantics of a calculation in MPFR is specified as follows:
Compute the requested operation exactly (with "infinite accuracy"), and
round the result to the precision of the destination variable, with the
given rounding mode. The MPFR floating-point functions are intended to
be a smooth extension of the IEEE 754-1985 arithmetic. The results
obtained on one computer should not differ from the results obtained on
a computer with a different word size.
MPFR does not keep track of the accuracy of a computation. This is
left to the user or to a higher layer. As a consequence, if two
variables are used to store only a few significant bits, and their
product is stored in a variable with large precision, then MPFR will
still compute the result with full precision.
The value of the standard C macro `errno' may be set to non-zero by
any MPFR function or macro, whether or not there is an error.

5.1 Initialization Functions
============================
An `mpfr_t' object must be initialized before storing the first value in
it. The functions `mpfr_init' and `mpfr_init2' are used for that
purpose.
-- Function: void mpfr_init2 (mpfr_t X, mp_prec_t PREC)
Initialize X, set its precision to be *exactly* PREC bits and its
value to NaN. (Warning: the corresponding `mpf' functions
initialize to zero instead.)
Normally, a variable should be initialized once only or at least
be cleared, using `mpfr_clear', between initializations. To
change the precision of a variable which has already been
initialized, use `mpfr_set_prec'. The precision PREC must be an
integer between `MPFR_PREC_MIN' and `MPFR_PREC_MAX' (otherwise the
behavior is undefined).
-- Function: void mpfr_clear (mpfr_t X)
Free the space occupied by X. Make sure to call this function for
all `mpfr_t' variables when you are done with them.
-- Function: void mpfr_init (mpfr_t X)
Initialize X and set its value to NaN.
Normally, a variable should be initialized once only or at least
be cleared, using `mpfr_clear', between initializations. The
precision of X is the default precision, which can be changed by a
call to `mpfr_set_default_prec'.
-- Function: void mpfr_set_default_prec (mp_prec_t PREC)
Set the default precision to be *exactly* PREC bits. The
precision of a variable means the number of bits used to store its
mantissa. All subsequent calls to `mpfr_init' will use this
precision, but previously initialized variables are unaffected.
This default precision is set to 53 bits initially. The precision
can be any integer between `MPFR_PREC_MIN' and `MPFR_PREC_MAX'.
-- Function: mp_prec_t mpfr_get_default_prec (void)
Return the default MPFR precision in bits.
Here is an example on how to initialize floating-point variables:
{
mpfr_t x, y;
mpfr_init (x); /* use default precision */
mpfr_init2 (y, 256); /* precision _exactly_ 256 bits */
...
/* When the program is about to exit, do ... */
mpfr_clear (x);
mpfr_clear (y);
}
The following functions are useful for changing the precision during
a calculation. A typical use would be for adjusting the precision
gradually in iterative algorithms like Newton-Raphson, making the
computation precision closely match the actual accurate part of the
numbers.
-- Function: void mpfr_set_prec (mpfr_t X, mp_prec_t PREC)
Reset the precision of X to be *exactly* PREC bits, and set its
value to NaN. The previous value stored in X is lost. It is
equivalent to a call to `mpfr_clear(x)' followed by a call to
`mpfr_init2(x, prec)', but more efficient as no allocation is done
in case the current allocated space for the mantissa of X is
enough. The precision PREC can be any integer between
`MPFR_PREC_MIN' and `MPFR_PREC_MAX'.
In case you want to keep the previous value stored in X, use
`mpfr_prec_round' instead.
-- Function: mp_prec_t mpfr_get_prec (mpfr_t X)
Return the precision actually used for assignments of X, i.e. the
number of bits used to store its mantissa.

5.2 Assignment Functions
========================
These functions assign new values to already initialized floats (*note
Initialization Functions::). When using any functions using `intmax_t',
you must include `<stdint.h>' or `<inttypes.h>' before `mpfr.h', to
allow `mpfr.h' to define prototypes for these functions.
-- Function: int mpfr_set (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_ui (mpfr_t ROP, unsigned long int OP,
mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_si (mpfr_t ROP, long int OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_uj (mpfr_t ROP, uintmax_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_sj (mpfr_t ROP, intmax_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_d (mpfr_t ROP, double OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_ld (mpfr_t ROP, long double OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_decimal64 (mpfr_t ROP, _Decimal64 OP,
mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_z (mpfr_t ROP, mpz_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_q (mpfr_t ROP, mpq_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_f (mpfr_t ROP, mpf_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Set the value of ROP from OP, rounded towards the given direction
RND. Note that the input 0 is converted to +0 by `mpfr_set_ui',
`mpfr_set_si', `mpfr_set_sj', `mpfr_set_uj', `mpfr_set_z',
`mpfr_set_q' and `mpfr_set_f', regardless of the rounding mode.
If the system doesn't support the IEEE-754 standard, `mpfr_set_d',
`mpfr_set_ld' and `mpfr_set_decimal64' might not preserve the
signed zeros. The `mpfr_set_decimal64' function is built only
with the configure option `--enable-decimal-float', which also
requires `--with-gmp-build', and when the compiler or system
provides the `_Decimal64' data type (GCC version 4.2.0 is known to
support this data type, but only when configured with
`--enable-decimal-float' too). `mpfr_set_q' might not be able to
work if the numerator (or the denominator) can not be
representable as a `mpfr_t'.
Note: If you want to store a floating-point constant to a `mpfr_t',
you should use `mpfr_set_str' (or one of the MPFR constant
functions, such as `mpfr_const_pi' for Pi) instead of `mpfr_set_d',
`mpfr_set_ld' or `mpfr_set_decimal64'. Otherwise the
floating-point constant will be first converted into a
reduced-precision (e.g., 53-bit) binary number before MPFR can
work with it.
-- Function: int mpfr_set_ui_2exp (mpfr_t ROP, unsigned long int OP,
mp_exp_t E, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_si_2exp (mpfr_t ROP, long int OP, mp_exp_t

-- Function: int mpfr_set_uj_2exp (mpfr_t ROP, uintmax_t OP, intmax_t
E, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_sj_2exp (mpfr_t ROP, intmax_t OP, intmax_t
E, mp_rnd_t RND)
Set the value of ROP from OP multiplied by two to the power E,
rounded towards the given direction RND. Note that the input 0 is
converted to +0.
-- Function: int mpfr_set_str (mpfr_t ROP, const char *S, int BASE,
mp_rnd_t RND)
Set ROP to the value of the whole string S in base BASE, rounded
in the direction RND. See the documentation of `mpfr_strtofr' for
a detailed description of the valid string formats. This function
returns 0 if the entire string up to the final null character is a
valid number in base BASE; otherwise it returns -1, and ROP may
have changed.
-- Function: int mpfr_strtofr (mpfr_t ROP, const char *NPTR, char
**ENDPTR, int BASE, mp_rnd_t RND)
Read a floating-point number from a string NPTR in base BASE,
rounded in the direction RND. If successful, the result is stored
in ROP and `*ENDPTR' points to the character just after those
parsed. If STR doesn't start with a valid number then ROP is set
to zero and the value of NPTR is stored in the location referenced
by ENDPTR.
Parsing follows the standard C `strtod' function. This means
optional leading whitespace, an optional `+' or `-', mantissa
digits with an optional decimal point, and an optional exponent
consisting of an `e' or `E' (if BASE <= 10) or `@', an optional
sign, and digits. The decimal point can be either the one defined
by the current locale or the period (the first one is accepted for
consistency with the C standard and the practice, the second one
is accepted to allow the programmer to provide MPFR numbers from
strings in a way that does not depend on the current locale). A
hexadecimal mantissa can be given with a leading `0x' or `0X', in
which case `p' or `P' may introduce an optional binary exponent,
indicating the power of 2 by which the mantissa is to be scaled. A
binary mantissa can be given with a leading `0b' or `0B', in which
case `e', `E', `p', `P' or `@' may introduce the binary exponent.
The exponent is always written in base 10.
In addition, `infinity', `inf' (if BASE <= 10) or `@inf@' with an
optional sign, or `nan', `nan(n-char-sequence)' (if BASE <= 10),
`@nan@' or `@nan@(n-char-sequence)' all case insensitive (as Latin
letters), can be given. A `n-char-sequence' is a non-empty string
containing only digits, Latin letters and the underscore (0, 1, 2,
..., 9, a, b, ..., z, A, B, ..., Z, _).
There must be at least one digit in the mantissa for the number to
be valid. If an exponent has no digits it's ignored and parsing
stops after the mantissa. If an `0x', `0X', `0b' or `0B' is not
followed by hexadecimal/binary digits, parsing stops after the
first `0': the subject sequence is defined as the longest initial
subsequence of the input string, starting with the first
non-white-space character, that is of the expected form. The
subject sequence contains no characters if the input string is not
of the expected form.
Note that in the hex format the exponent `P' represents a power of
2, whereas `@' represents a power of the base (i.e. 16).
If the argument BASE is different from 0, it must be in the range 2
to 36. Case is ignored; uppercase and lowercase letters have the
same value.
If `base' is 0, then it tries to identify the used base: if the
mantissa begins with the `0x' prefix, it assumes that BASE is 16.
If it begins with `0b', it assumes that BASE is 2. Otherwise, it
assumes it is 10.
It returns a usual ternary value. If ENDPTR is not a null
pointer, a pointer to the character after the last character used
in the conversion is stored in the location referenced by ENDPTR.
-- Function: void mpfr_set_inf (mpfr_t X, int SIGN)
-- Function: void mpfr_set_nan (mpfr_t X)
Set the variable X to infinity or NaN (Not-a-Number) respectively.
In `mpfr_set_inf', X is set to plus infinity iff SIGN is
nonnegative.
-- Function: void mpfr_swap (mpfr_t X, mpfr_t Y)
Swap the values X and Y efficiently. Warning: the precisions are
exchanged too; in case the precisions are different, `mpfr_swap'
is thus not equivalent to three `mpfr_set' calls using a third
auxiliary variable.

5.4 Conversion Functions
========================
-- Function: double mpfr_get_d (mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: long double mpfr_get_ld (mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: _Decimal64 mpfr_get_decimal64 (mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Convert OP to a `double' (respectively `_Decimal64' or `long
double'), using the rounding mode RND. If OP is NaN, some fixed
NaN (either quiet or signaling) or the result of 0.0/0.0 is
returned. If OP is <20>Inf, an infinity of the same sign or the
result of <20>1.0/0.0 is returned. If OP is zero, these functions
return a zero, trying to preserve its sign, if possible. The
`mpfr_get_decimal64' function is built only under some conditions:
see the documentation of `mpfr_set_decimal64'.
-- Function: double mpfr_get_d_2exp (long *EXP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t
RND)
-- Function: long double mpfr_get_ld_2exp (long *EXP, mpfr_t OP,
mp_rnd_t RND)
Return D and set EXP such that 0.5<=abs(D)<1 and D times 2 raised
to EXP equals OP rounded to double (resp. long double) precision,
using the given rounding mode. If OP is zero, then a zero of the
same sign (or an unsigned zero, if the implementation does not
have signed zeros) is returned, and EXP is set to 0. If OP is NaN
or an infinity, then the corresponding double precision (resp.
long-double precision) value is returned, and EXP is undefined.
-- Function: long mpfr_get_si (mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: unsigned long mpfr_get_ui (mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: intmax_t mpfr_get_sj (mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: uintmax_t mpfr_get_uj (mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Convert OP to a `long', an `unsigned long', an `intmax_t' or an
`uintmax_t' (respectively) after rounding it with respect to RND.
If OP is NaN, the result is undefined. If OP is too big for the
return type, it returns the maximum or the minimum of the
corresponding C type, depending on the direction of the overflow.
The flag erange is set too. See also `mpfr_fits_slong_p',
`mpfr_fits_ulong_p', `mpfr_fits_intmax_p' and
`mpfr_fits_uintmax_p'.
-- Function: mp_exp_t mpfr_get_z_exp (mpz_t ROP, mpfr_t OP)
Put the scaled mantissa of OP (regarded as an integer, with the
precision of OP) into ROP, and return the exponent EXP (which may
be outside the current exponent range) such that OP exactly equals
ROP multiplied by two exponent EXP. If the exponent is not
representable in the `mp_exp_t' type, the behavior is undefined.
-- Function: void mpfr_get_z (mpz_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Convert OP to a `mpz_t', after rounding it with respect to RND. If
OP is NaN or Inf, the result is undefined.
-- Function: int mpfr_get_f (mpf_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Convert OP to a `mpf_t', after rounding it with respect to RND.
Return zero iff no error occurred, in particular a non-zero value
is returned if OP is NaN or Inf, which do not exist in `mpf'.
-- Function: char * mpfr_get_str (char *STR, mp_exp_t *EXPPTR, int B,
size_t N, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Convert OP to a string of digits in base B, with rounding in the
direction RND, where N is either zero (see below) or the number of
significant digits; in the latter case, N must be greater or equal
to 2. The base may vary from 2 to 36.
The generated string is a fraction, with an implicit radix point
immediately to the left of the first digit. For example, the
number -3.1416 would be returned as "-31416" in the string and 1
written at EXPPTR. If RND is to nearest, and OP is exactly in the
middle of two possible outputs, the one with an even last digit is
chosen (for an odd base, this may not correspond to an even
mantissa).
If N is zero, the number of digits of the mantissa is chosen large
enough so that re-reading the printed value with the same
precision, assuming both output and input use rounding to nearest,
will recover the original value of OP. More precisely, in most
cases, the chosen precision of STR is the minimal precision
depending on N and B only that satisfies the above property, i.e.,
m = 1 + ceil(N*log(2)/log(B)), but in some very rare cases, it
might be m+1.
If STR is a null pointer, space for the mantissa is allocated using
the current allocation function, and a pointer to the string is
returned. To free the returned string, you must use
`mpfr_free_str'.
If STR is not a null pointer, it should point to a block of storage
large enough for the mantissa, i.e., at least `max(N + 2, 7)'.
The extra two bytes are for a possible minus sign, and for the
terminating null character.
If the input number is an ordinary number, the exponent is written
through the pointer EXPPTR (the current minimal exponent for 0).
A pointer to the string is returned, unless there is an error, in
which case a null pointer is returned.
-- Function: void mpfr_free_str (char *STR)
Free a string allocated by `mpfr_get_str' using the current
unallocation function (preliminary interface). The block is
assumed to be `strlen(STR)+1' bytes. For more information about
how it is done: *note Custom Allocation: (gmp)Custom Allocation.

Note: These functions may be useful to distinguish the three
possible cases. If you need to distinguish two cases only, it is
recommended to use the predicate functions (e.g., `mpfr_equal_p'
for the equality) described below; they behave like the IEEE-754

ROP is always set to NaN. When OP is plus or minus Infinity, ROP
is set to +0. When OP is zero, and N is not zero, ROP is +0 or -0
depending on the parity and sign of N, and the sign of OP.

limit of the sequences u[n] and v[n], where u[0]=OP1, v[0]=OP2,
u[n+1] is the arithmetic mean of u[n] and v[n], and v[n+1] is the
geometric mean of u[n] and v[n]. If any operand is negative, the

RND)
Set ROP to the Euclidean norm of X and Y, i.e. the square root of
the sum of the squares of X and Y, rounded in the direction RND.
Special values are currently handled as described in Section
F.9.4.3 of the ISO C99 standard, for the `hypot' function (note
this may change in future versions): If X or Y is an infinity,

Set ROP to the logarithm of 2, the value of Pi, of Euler's
constant 0.577..., of Catalan's constant 0.915..., respectively,
rounded in the direction RND. These functions cache the computed
values to avoid other calculations if a lower or equal precision
is requested. To free these caches, use `mpfr_free_cache'.
-- Function: void mpfr_free_cache (void)
Free various caches used by MPFR internally, in particular the
caches used by the functions computing constants (currently
`mpfr_const_log2', `mpfr_const_pi', `mpfr_const_euler' and
`mpfr_const_catalan'). You should call this function when
terminating a thread.
-- Function: int mpfr_sum (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_ptr const TAB[], unsigned
long N, mp_rnd_t RND)
Set RET to the sum of all elements of TAB whose size is N, rounded
in the direction RND. Warning, TAB is a table of pointers to
mpfr_t, not a table of mpfr_t (preliminary interface). The returned
`int' value is zero when the computed value is the exact value,
and non-zero when this cannot be guaranteed, without giving the
direction of the error as the other functions do.

5.8 Input and Output Functions
==============================
This section describes functions that perform input from an input/output
stream, and functions that output to an input/output stream. Passing a
null pointer for a STREAM argument to any of these functions will make
them read from `stdin' and write to `stdout', respectively.
When using any of these functions, you must include the `<stdio.h>'
standard header before `mpfr.h', to allow `mpfr.h' to define prototypes
for these functions.
-- Function: size_t mpfr_out_str (FILE *STREAM, int BASE, size_t N,
mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Output OP on stream STREAM, as a string of digits in base BASE,
rounded in the direction RND. The base may vary from 2 to 36.
Print N significant digits exactly, or if N is 0, enough digits so
that OP can be read back exactly (see `mpfr_get_str').
In addition to the significant digits, a decimal point (defined by
the current locale) at the right of the first digit and a trailing
exponent in base 10, in the form `eNNN', are printed. If BASE is
greater than 10, `@' will be used instead of `e' as exponent
delimiter.
Return the number of bytes written, or if an error occurred,
return 0.
-- Function: size_t mpfr_inp_str (mpfr_t ROP, FILE *STREAM, int BASE,
mp_rnd_t RND)
Input a string in base BASE from stream STREAM, rounded in the
direction RND, and put the read float in ROP.
This function reads a word (defined as a sequence of characters
between whitespace) and parses it using `mpfr_set_str' (it may
change). See the documentation of `mpfr_strtofr' for a detailed
description of the valid string formats.
Return the number of bytes read, or if an error occurred, return 0.

5.9 Integer Related Functions
=============================
-- Function: int mpfr_rint (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_ceil (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP)
-- Function: int mpfr_floor (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP)
-- Function: int mpfr_round (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP)
-- Function: int mpfr_trunc (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP)
Set ROP to OP rounded to an integer. `mpfr_rint' rounds to the
nearest representable integer in the given rounding mode,
`mpfr_ceil' rounds to the next higher or equal representable
integer, `mpfr_floor' to the next lower or equal representable
integer, `mpfr_round' to the nearest representable integer,
rounding halfway cases away from zero, and `mpfr_trunc' to the
next representable integer towards zero.
The returned value is zero when the result is exact, positive when
it is greater than the original value of OP, and negative when it
is smaller. More precisely, the returned value is 0 when OP is an
integer representable in ROP, 1 or -1 when OP is an integer that
is not representable in ROP, 2 or -2 when OP is not an integer.
Note that `mpfr_round' is different from `mpfr_rint' called with
the rounding to the nearest mode (where halfway cases are rounded
to an even integer or mantissa). Note also that no double rounding
is performed; for instance, 4.5 (100.1 in binary) is rounded by
`mpfr_round' to 4 (100 in binary) in 2-bit precision, though
`round(4.5)' is equal to 5 and 5 (101 in binary) is rounded to 6
(110 in binary) in 2-bit precision.
-- Function: int mpfr_rint_ceil (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_rint_floor (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_rint_round (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_rint_trunc (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Set ROP to OP rounded to an integer. `mpfr_rint_ceil' rounds to
the next higher or equal integer, `mpfr_rint_floor' to the next
lower or equal integer, `mpfr_rint_round' to the nearest integer,
rounding halfway cases away from zero, and `mpfr_rint_trunc' to
the next integer towards zero. If the result is not
representable, it is rounded in the direction RND. The returned
value is the ternary value associated with the considered
round-to-integer function (regarded in the same way as any other
mathematical function).
-- Function: int mpfr_frac (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, mp_rnd_t RND)
Set ROP to the fractional part of OP, having the same sign as OP,
rounded in the direction RND (unlike in `mpfr_rint', RND affects
only how the exact fractional part is rounded, not how the
fractional part is generated).
-- Function: int mpfr_remainder (mpfr_t R, mpfr_t X, mpfr_t Y,
mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_remquo (mpfr_t R, long* Q, mpfr_t X, mpfr_t Y,
mp_rnd_t RND)
Set R to the remainder of the division of X by Y, with quotient
rounded to the nearest integer (ties rounded to even), and R
rounded according to the direction RND. If R is zero, it has the
sign of X. The return value is the inexact flag corresponding to
R. Additionally, `mpfr_remquo' stores the low significant bits
from the quotient in *Q (more precisely the number of bits in a
`long' minus one), with the sign of X divided by Y (except if
those low bits are all zero, in which case zero is returned).
Note that X may be so large in magnitude relative to Y that an
exact representation of the quotient is not practical. These
functions are useful for additive argument reduction.
-- Function: int mpfr_integer_p (mpfr_t OP)
Return non-zero iff OP is an integer.

5.10 Miscellaneous Functions
============================
-- Function: void mpfr_nexttoward (mpfr_t X, mpfr_t Y)
If X or Y is NaN, set X to NaN. Otherwise, if X is different from
Y, replace X by the next floating-point number (with the precision
of X and the current exponent range) in the direction of Y, if
there is one (the infinite values are seen as the smallest and
largest floating-point numbers). If the result is zero, it keeps
the same sign. No underflow or overflow is generated.
-- Function: void mpfr_nextabove (mpfr_t X)
Equivalent to `mpfr_nexttoward' where Y is plus infinity.
-- Function: void mpfr_nextbelow (mpfr_t X)
Equivalent to `mpfr_nexttoward' where Y is minus infinity.
-- Function: int mpfr_min (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP1, mpfr_t OP2,
mp_rnd_t RND)
Set ROP to the minimum of OP1 and OP2. If OP1 and OP2 are both
NaN, then ROP is set to NaN. If OP1 or OP2 is NaN, then ROP is set
to the numeric value. If OP1 and OP2 are zeros of different signs,
then ROP is set to -0.
-- Function: int mpfr_max (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP1, mpfr_t OP2,
mp_rnd_t RND)
Set ROP to the maximum of OP1 and OP2. If OP1 and OP2 are both
NaN, then ROP is set to NaN. If OP1 or OP2 is NaN, then ROP is set
to the numeric value. If OP1 and OP2 are zeros of different signs,
then ROP is set to +0.
-- Function: int mpfr_urandomb (mpfr_t ROP, gmp_randstate_t STATE)
Generate a uniformly distributed random float in the interval 0 <=
ROP < 1. Return 0, unless the exponent is not in the current
exponent range, in which case ROP is set to NaN and a non-zero
value is returned. The second argument is a `gmp_randstate_t'
structure which should be created using the GMP `gmp_randinit'
function, see the GMP manual.
-- Function: void mpfr_random (mpfr_t ROP)
Generate a uniformly distributed random float in the interval 0 <=
ROP < 1. This function is deprecated; `mpfr_urandomb' should be
used instead.
-- Function: void mpfr_random2 (mpfr_t ROP, mp_size_t SIZE, mp_exp_t
EXP)
Generate a random float of at most SIZE limbs, with long strings of
zeros and ones in the binary representation. The exponent of the
number is in the interval -EXP to EXP. This function is useful for
testing functions and algorithms, since this kind of random
numbers have proven to be more likely to trigger corner-case bugs.
Negative random numbers are generated when SIZE is negative. Put
+0 in ROP when size if zero. The internal state of the default
pseudorandom number generator is modified by a call to this
function (the same one as GMP if MPFR was built using
`--with-gmp-build').
-- Function: mp_exp_t mpfr_get_exp (mpfr_t X)
Get the exponent of X, assuming that X is a non-zero ordinary
number. The behavior for NaN, Infinity or Zero is undefined.
-- Function: int mpfr_set_exp (mpfr_t X, mp_exp_t E)
Set the exponent of X if E is in the current exponent range, and
return 0 (even if X is not a non-zero ordinary number); otherwise,
return a non-zero value.
-- Function: int mpfr_signbit (mpfr_t OP)
Return a non-zero value iff OP has its sign bit set (i.e. if it is
negative, -0, or a NaN whose representation has its sign bit set).
-- Function: int mpfr_setsign (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP, int S, mp_rnd_t
RND)
Set the value of ROP from OP, rounded towards the given direction
RND, then set (resp. clear) its sign bit if S is non-zero (resp.
zero), even when OP is a NaN.
-- Function: int mpfr_copysign (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP1, mpfr_t OP2,
mp_rnd_t RND)
Set the value of ROP from OP1, rounded towards the given direction
RND, then set its sign bit to that of OP2 (even when OP1 or OP2 is
a NaN). This function is equivalent to `mpfr_setsign (ROP, OP1,
mpfr_signbit (OP2), RND)'.
-- Function: const char * mpfr_get_version (void)
Return the MPFR version, as a null-terminated string.
-- Macro: MPFR_VERSION
-- Macro: MPFR_VERSION_MAJOR
-- Macro: MPFR_VERSION_MINOR
-- Macro: MPFR_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL
-- Macro: MPFR_VERSION_STRING
`MPFR_VERSION' is the version of MPFR as a preprocessing constant.
`MPFR_VERSION_MAJOR', `MPFR_VERSION_MINOR' and
`MPFR_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL' are respectively the major, minor and
patch level of MPFR version, as preprocessing constants.
`MPFR_VERSION_STRING' is the version (with an optional suffix, used
in development and pre-release versions) as a string constant,
which can be compared to the result of `mpfr_get_version' to check
at run time the header file and library used match:
if (strcmp (mpfr_get_version (), MPFR_VERSION_STRING))
fprintf (stderr, "Warning: header and library do not match\n");
Note: Obtaining different strings is not necessarily an error, as
in general, a program compiled with some old MPFR version can be
dynamically linked with a newer MPFR library version (if allowed
by the library versioning system).
-- Macro: long MPFR_VERSION_NUM (MAJOR, MINOR, PATCHLEVEL)
Create an integer in the same format as used by `MPFR_VERSION'
from the given MAJOR, MINOR and PATCHLEVEL. Here is an example of
how to check the MPFR version at compile time:
#if (!defined(MPFR_VERSION) || (MPFR_VERSION<MPFR_VERSION_NUM(2,1,0)))
# error "Wrong MPFR version."
#endif
-- Function: const char * mpfr_get_patches (void)
Return a null-terminated string containing the ids of the patches
applied to the MPFR library (contents of the `PATCHES' file),
separated by spaces. Note: If the program has been compiled with
an older MPFR version and is dynamically linked with a new MPFR
library version, the ids of the patches applied to the old
(compile-time) MPFR version are not available (however this
information should not have much interest in general).

5.11 Rounding Mode Related Functions
====================================

Get the default rounding mode.
-- Function: int mpfr_prec_round (mpfr_t X, mp_prec_t PREC, mp_rnd_t
RND)
Round X according to RND with precision PREC, which must be an
integer between `MPFR_PREC_MIN' and `MPFR_PREC_MAX' (otherwise the
behavior is undefined). If PREC is greater or equal to the
precision of X, then new space is allocated for the mantissa, and
it is filled with zeros. Otherwise, the mantissa is rounded to
precision PREC with the given direction. In both cases, the
precision of X is changed to PREC.
-- Function: int mpfr_round_prec (mpfr_t X, mp_rnd_t RND, mp_prec_t
PREC)
[This function is obsolete. Please use `mpfr_prec_round' instead.]
-- Function: const char * mpfr_print_rnd_mode (mp_rnd_t RND)
Return the input string (GMP_RNDD, GMP_RNDU, GMP_RNDN, GMP_RNDZ)

an invalid rounding mode.

================================
-- Function: mp_exp_t mpfr_get_emin (void)
-- Function: mp_exp_t mpfr_get_emax (void)
Return the (current) smallest and largest exponents allowed for a
floating-point variable. The smallest positive value of a
floating-point variable is one half times 2 raised to the smallest
exponent and the largest value has the form (1 - epsilon) times 2
raised to the largest exponent.
-- Function: int mpfr_set_emin (mp_exp_t EXP)
-- Function: int mpfr_set_emax (mp_exp_t EXP)
Set the smallest and largest exponents allowed for a
floating-point variable. Return a non-zero value when EXP is not
in the range accepted by the implementation (in that case the
smallest or largest exponent is not changed), and zero otherwise.
If the user changes the exponent range, it is her/his
responsibility to check that all current floating-point variables
are in the new allowed range (for example using
`mpfr_check_range'), otherwise the subsequent behavior will be
undefined, in the sense of the ISO C standard.
-- Function: mp_exp_t mpfr_get_emin_min (void)

Return the minimum and maximum of the smallest and largest
exponents allowed for `mpfr_set_emin' and `mpfr_set_emax'. These
values are implementation dependent; it is possible to create a non
portable program by writing `mpfr_set_emax(mpfr_get_emax_max())'
and `mpfr_set_emin(mpfr_get_emin_min())' since the values of the
smallest and largest exponents become implementation dependent.
-- Function: int mpfr_check_range (mpfr_t X, int T, mp_rnd_t RND)
This function forces X to be in the current range of acceptable
values, T being the current ternary value: negative if X is
smaller than the exact value, positive if X is larger than the
exact value and zero if X is exact (before the call). It generates
an underflow or an overflow if the exponent of X is outside the
current allowed range; the value of T may be used to avoid a
double rounding. This function returns zero if the rounded result
is equal to the exact one, a positive value if the rounded result
is larger than the exact one, a negative value if the rounded
result is smaller than the exact one. Note that unlike most
functions, the result is compared to the exact one, not the input
value X, i.e. the ternary value is propagated.
-- Function: int mpfr_subnormalize (mpfr_t X, int T, mp_rnd_t RND)
This function rounds X emulating subnormal number arithmetic: if X
is outside the subnormal exponent range, it just propagates the
ternary value T; otherwise, it rounds X to precision
`EXP(x)-emin+1' according to rounding mode RND and previous
ternary value T, avoiding double rounding problems. `PREC(x)' is
not modified by this function. RND and T must be the used
rounding mode for computing X and the returned ternary value when
computing X. The subnormal exponent range is from `emin' to
`emin+PREC(x)-1'. This functions assumes that `emax-emin >=
PREC(x)'. Note that unlike most functions, the result is compared
to the exact one, not the input value X, i.e. the ternary value is
propagated. This is a preliminary interface.
This is an example of how to emulate double IEEE-754 arithmetic
using MPFR:
{
mpfr_t xa, xb;
int i;
volatile double a, b;
mpfr_set_default_prec (53);
mpfr_set_emin (-1073);
mpfr_set_emax (1024);
mpfr_init (xa); mpfr_init (xb);
b = 34.3; mpfr_set_d (xb, b, GMP_RNDN);
a = 0x1.1235P-1021; mpfr_set_d (xa, a, GMP_RNDN);
a /= b;
i = mpfr_div (xa, xa, xb, GMP_RNDN);
i = mpfr_subnormalize (xa, i, GMP_RNDN);
mpfr_clear (xa); mpfr_clear (xb);
}
Warning: this emulates a double IEEE-754 arithmetic with correct
rounding in the subnormal range, which may not be the case for your
hardware.

5.13 Advanced Functions
=======================
All the given interfaces are preliminary. They might change
incompatibly in future revisions.
-- Macro: MPFR_DECL_INIT (NAME, PREC)
This macro declares NAME as an automatic variable of type `mpfr_t',
initializes it and sets its precision to be *exactly* PREC bits
and its value to NaN. NAME must be a valid identifier. You must
use this macro in the declaration section. This macro is much
faster than using `mpfr_init2' but has some drawbacks:
* You *must not* call `mpfr_clear' with variables created with
this macro (The storage is allocated at the point of
declaration and deallocated when the brace-level is exited.).
* You *can not* change their precision.
* You *should not* create variables with huge precision with
this macro.
* Your compiler must support `Non-Constant Initializers'
(standard in C++ and ISO C99) and `Token Pasting' (standard
in ISO C89). If PREC is not a compiler constant, your compiler
must support `Variable-length automatic arrays' (standard in
ISO C99). `GCC 2.95.3' supports all these features. If you
compile your program with gcc in c89 mode and with
`-pedantic', you may want to define the `MPFR_USE_EXTENSION'
macro to avoid warnings due to the `MPFR_DECL_INIT'
implementation.
-- Function: void mpfr_inits (mpfr_t X, ...)
Initialize all the `mpfr_t' variables of the given `va_list', set
their precision to be the default precision and their value to NaN.
See `mpfr_init' for more details. The `va_list' is assumed to be
composed only of type `mpfr_t'. It begins from X. It ends when it
encounters a null pointer.
-- Function: void mpfr_inits2 (mp_prec_t PREC, mpfr_t X, ...)
Initialize all the `mpfr_t' variables of the given `va_list', set
their precision to be *exactly* PREC bits and their value to NaN.
See `mpfr_init2' for more details. The `va_list' is assumed to be
composed only of type `mpfr_t'. It begins from X. It ends when it
encounters a null pointer.
-- Function: void mpfr_clears (mpfr_t X, ...)
Free the space occupied by all the `mpfr_t' variables of the given
`va_list'. See `mpfr_clear' for more details. The `va_list' is
assumed to be composed only of type `mpfr_t'. It begins from X.
It ends when it encounters a null pointer.
Here is an example of how to use multiple initialization functions:
{
mpfr_t x, y, z, t;
mpfr_inits2 (256, x, y, z, t, (void *) 0);
...
mpfr_clears (x, y, z, t, (void *) 0);
}

5.14 Compatibility With MPF
===========================
A header file `mpf2mpfr.h' is included in the distribution of MPFR for
compatibility with the GNU MP class MPF. After inserting the following
two lines after the `#include <gmp.h>' line,
#include <mpfr.h>
#include <mpf2mpfr.h>
any program written for MPF can be compiled directly with MPFR without
any changes. All operations are then performed with the default MPFR
rounding mode, which can be reset with `mpfr_set_default_rounding_mode'.
Warning: the `mpf_init' and `mpf_init2' functions initialize to
zero, whereas the corresponding `mpfr' functions initialize to NaN:
this is useful to detect uninitialized values, but is slightly
incompatible with `mpf'.
-- Function: void mpfr_set_prec_raw (mpfr_t X, mp_prec_t PREC)
Reset the precision of X to be *exactly* PREC bits. The only
difference with `mpfr_set_prec' is that PREC is assumed to be
small enough so that the mantissa fits into the current allocated
memory space for X. Otherwise the behavior is undefined.
-- Function: int mpfr_eq (mpfr_t OP1, mpfr_t OP2, unsigned long int
OP3)
Return non-zero if OP1 and OP2 are both non-zero ordinary numbers
with the same exponent and the same first OP3 bits, both zero, or
both infinities of the same sign. Return zero otherwise. This
function is defined for compatibility with `mpf'. Do not use it if
you want to know whether two numbers are close to each other; for
instance, 1.011111 and 1.100000 are regarded as different for any
value of OP3 larger than 1.
-- Function: void mpfr_reldiff (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP1, mpfr_t OP2,
mp_rnd_t RND)
Compute the relative difference between OP1 and OP2 and store the
result in ROP. This function does not guarantee the correct
rounding on the relative difference; it just computes
|OP1-OP2|/OP1, using the rounding mode RND for all operations and
the precision of ROP.
-- Function: int mpfr_mul_2exp (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP1, unsigned long
int OP2, mp_rnd_t RND)
-- Function: int mpfr_div_2exp (mpfr_t ROP, mpfr_t OP1, unsigned long
int OP2, mp_rnd_t RND)
See `mpfr_mul_2ui' and `mpfr_div_2ui'. These functions are only
kept for compatibility with MPF.

File: mpfr.info, Node: Custom Interface, Next: Internals, Prev: Compatibility with MPF, Up: MPFR Interface
5.15 Custom Interface
=====================
Some applications use a stack to handle the memory and their objects.
However, the MPFR memory design is not well suited for such a thing. So
that such applications are able to use MPFR, an auxiliary memory
interface has been created: the Custom Interface.
The following interface allows them to use MPFR in two ways:
* Either they directly store the MPFR FP number as a `mpfr_t' on the
stack.
* Either they store their own representation of a FP number on the
stack and construct a new temporary `mpfr_t' each time it is
needed.
Nothing has to be done to destroy the FP numbers except garbaging
the used memory: all the memory stuff (allocating, destroying,
garbaging) is kept to the application.
Each function is this interface is also implemented as a macro for
efficiency reasons.
Note 1: MPFR functions may still initialize temporary FP numbers
using standard mpfr_init. See Custom Allocation (GNU MP).
Note 2: MPFR functions may use the cached functions (mpfr_const_pi
for example), even if they are not explicitly called. You have to call
`mpfr_free_cache' each time you garbage the memory iff mpfr_init,
through GMP Custom Allocation, allocates its memory on the application
stack.
Note 3: This interface is preliminary.
-- Function: size_t mpfr_custom_get_size (mp_prec_t PREC)
Return the needed size in bytes to store the mantissa of a FP
number of precision PREC.
-- Function: void mpfr_custom_init (void *MANTISSA, mp_prec_t PREC)
Initialize a mantissa of precision PREC. MANTISSA must be an area
of `mpfr_custom_get_size (prec)' bytes at least and be suitably
aligned for an array of `mp_limb_t'.
-- Function: void mpfr_custom_init_set (mpfr_t X, int KIND, mp_exp_t
EXP, mp_prec_t PREC, void *MANTISSA)
Perform a dummy initialization of a `mpfr_t' and set it to:
* if `ABS(kind) == MPFR_NAN_KIND', X is set to NaN;
* if `ABS(kind) == MPFR_INF_KIND', X is set to the infinity of
sign `sign(kind)';
* if `ABS(kind) == MPFR_ZERO_KIND', X is set to the zero of
sign `sign(kind)';
* if `ABS(kind) == MPFR_REGULAR_KIND', X is set to a regular
number: `x = sign(kind)*mantissa*2^exp'
In all cases, it uses MANTISSA directly for further computing
involving X. It will not allocate anything. A FP number
initialized with this function cannot be resized using
`mpfr_set_prec', or cleared using `mpfr_clear'! MANTISSA must
have been initialized with `mpfr_custom_init' using the same
precision PREC.
-- Function: int mpfr_custom_get_kind (mpfr_t X)
Return the current kind of a `mpfr_t' as used by
`mpfr_custom_init_set'. The behavior of this function for any
`mpfr_t' not initialized with `mpfr_custom_init_set' is undefined.
-- Function: void * mpfr_custom_get_mantissa (mpfr_t X)
Return a pointer to the mantissa used by a `mpfr_t' initialized
with `mpfr_custom_init_set'. The behavior of this function for
any `mpfr_t' not initialized with `mpfr_custom_init_set' is
undefined.
-- Function: mp_exp_t mpfr_custom_get_exp (mpfr_t X)
Return the exponent of X, assuming that X is a non-zero ordinary
number. The return value for NaN, Infinity or Zero is unspecified
but doesn't produce any trap. The behavior of this function for
any `mpfr_t' not initialized with `mpfr_custom_init_set' is
undefined.
-- Function: void mpfr_custom_move (mpfr_t X, void *NEW_POSITION)
Inform MPFR that the mantissa has moved due to a garbage collect
and update its new position to `new_position'. However the
application has to move the mantissa and the `mpfr_t' itself. The
behavior of this function for any `mpfr_t' not initialized with
`mpfr_custom_init_set' is undefined.
See the test suite for examples.

5.16 Internals
==============
The following types and functions were mainly designed for the
implementation of `mpfr', but may be useful for users too. However no
upward compatibility is guaranteed. You may need to include
`mpfr-impl.h' to use them.
The `mpfr_t' type consists of four fields.
* The `_mpfr_prec' field is used to store the precision of the
variable (in bits); this is not less than `MPFR_PREC_MIN'.
* The `_mpfr_sign' field is used to store the sign of the variable.
* The `_mpfr_exp' field stores the exponent. An exponent of 0 means
a radix point just above the most significant limb. Non-zero
values n are a multiplier 2^n relative to that point. A NaN, an
infinity and a zero are indicated by a special value of the
exponent.
* Finally, the `_mpfr_d' is a pointer to the limbs, least
significant limbs stored first. The number of limbs in use is
controlled by `_mpfr_prec', namely
ceil(`_mpfr_prec'/`mp_bits_per_limb'). Non-singular values always
have the most significant bit of the most significant limb set to
1. When the precision does not correspond to a whole number of
limbs, the excess bits at the low end of the data are zero.
-- Function: int mpfr_can_round (mpfr_t B, mp_exp_t ERR, mp_rnd_t
RND1, mp_rnd_t RND2, mp_prec_t PREC)
Assuming B is an approximation of an unknown number X in the
direction RND1 with error at most two to the power E(b)-ERR where
E(b) is the exponent of B, return a non-zero value if one is able
to round correctly X to precision PREC with the direction RND2,
and 0 otherwise (including for NaN and Inf). This function *does
not modify* its arguments.
-- Function: double mpfr_get_d1 (mpfr_t OP)
Convert OP to a `double', using the default MPFR rounding mode
(see function `mpfr_set_default_rounding_mode'). This function is
obsolete.

The main developers consist of Guillaume Hanrot, Vincent Lef<65>vre,
Patrick P<>lissier and Paul Zimmermann.
We would like to thank Jean-Michel Muller and Joris van der Hoeven
for very fruitful discussions at the beginning of that project,
Torbj<EFBFBD>rn Granlund and Kevin Ryde for their help about design issues,
and Nathalie Revol for her careful reading of a previous version of
this documentation. Kevin Ryde did a tremendous job for the
portability of MPFR, and integrating it into GMP 4.x; alas the GMP
developers decided in January 2004 not to include MPFR any more.
Sylvie Boldo from ENS-Lyon, France, contributed the functions
`mpfr_agm' and `mpfr_log'. Emmanuel Jeandel, from ENS-Lyon too,
contributed the generic hypergeometric code in `generic.c', as well as
the `mpfr_exp3', a first implementation of the sine and cosine, and
improved versions of `mpfr_const_log2' and `mpfr_const_pi'. Mathieu
Dutour contributed the functions `mpfr_atan' and `mpfr_asin', and a
previous version of `mpfr_gamma'; David Daney contributed the
hyperbolic and inverse hyperbolic functions, the base-2 exponential,
and the factorial function. Fabrice Rouillier contributed the original
version of `mul_ui.c', the `gmp_op.c' file, and helped to the Windows
porting. Jean-Luc R<>my contributed the `mpfr_zeta' code. Ludovic
Meunier helped in the design of the `mpfr_erf' code. Damien Stehl<68>
contributed the `mpfr_get_ld_2exp' function.
The development of the MPFR library would not have been possible
without the continuous support of INRIA, and of the LORIA and LIP
laboratories. In particular the main authors were or are members of the
PolKA, Spaces, Cacao project-teams at LORIA (Nancy, France) and of the
Arenaire project-team at LIP (Lyon, France). The development of MPFR
was also supported by a grant (202F0659 00 MPN 121) from the Conseil
R<EFBFBD>gional de Lorraine in 2002.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
0. PREAMBLE
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
with or without modifying it, either commercially or
noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the
author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not
being considered responsible for modifications made by others.
This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
license designed for free software.
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
that the software does. But this License is not limited to
software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book.
We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
instruction or reference.
1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium,
that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it
can be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice
grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration,
to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The
"Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member
of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". You
accept the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a
way requiring permission under copyright law.
A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
modifications and/or translated into another language.
A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section
of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could
fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document
is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not
explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of
historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or
of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
regarding them.
The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in
the notice that says that the Document is released under this
License. If a section does not fit the above definition of
Secondary then it is not allowed to be designated as Invariant.
The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document
does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none.
The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
that says that the Document is released under this License. A
Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may
be at most 25 words.
A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
represented in a format whose specification is available to the
general public, that is suitable for revising the document
straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images
composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some
widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to
text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of
formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an
otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of
markup, has been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent
modification by readers is not Transparent. An image format is
not Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text. A
copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for
human modification. Examples of transparent image formats include
PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats include proprietary formats that
can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or
XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally
available, and the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF
produced by some word processors for output purposes only.
The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
material this License requires to appear in the title page. For
works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document
whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses
following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ
stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as
"Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)
To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the
Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according
to this definition.
The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
which states that this License applies to the Document. These
Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and
has no effect on the meaning of this License.
2. VERBATIM COPYING
You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You
may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However,
you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you
distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow
the conditions in section 3.
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
and you may publicly display copies.
3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly
have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and
the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all
these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly
and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The
front cover must present the full title with all words of the
title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material
on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the
covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and
satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in
other respects.
If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
adjacent pages.
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
numbering more than 100, you must either include a
machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or
state in or with each Opaque copy a computer-network location from
which the general network-using public has access to download
using public-standard network protocols a complete Transparent
copy of the Document, free of added material. If you use the
latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you
begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that
this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
location until at least one year after the last time you
distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or
retailers) of that edition to the public.
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
the Document well before redistributing any large number of
copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated
version of the Document.
4. MODIFICATIONS
You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with
the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus
licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to
whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these
things in the Modified Version:
A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
distinct from that of the Document, and from those of
previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed
in the History section of the Document). You may use the
same title as a previous version if the original publisher of
that version gives permission.
B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you
from this requirement.
C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
Modified Version, as the publisher.
D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
adjacent to the other copyright notices.
F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
the Addendum below.
G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
license notice.
H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title,
and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on
the Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in
the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors,
and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page,
then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in
the previous sentence.
J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
likewise the network locations given in the Document for
previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in
the "History" section. You may omit a network location for a
work that was published at least four years before the
Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version
it refers to gives permission.
K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the
section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
or the equivalent are not considered part of the section
titles.
M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
may not be included in the Modified Version.
N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
"Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant
Section.
O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
material copied from the Document, you may at your option
designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this,
add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified
Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct from any
other section titles.
You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text
has been approved by an organization as the authoritative
definition of a standard.
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end
of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one
passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be
added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the
Document already includes a cover text for the same cover,
previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity
you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may
replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous
publisher that added the old one.
The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
You may combine the Document with other documents released under
this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
modified versions, provided that you include in the combination
all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all
their Warranty Disclaimers.
The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
combined work.
In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
"History" in the various original documents, forming one section
Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled
"Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You
must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements."
6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
documents released under this License, and replace the individual
copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the
documents in all other respects.
You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow
this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of
that document.
7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of
a storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the
copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the
legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual
works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this
License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which
are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half
of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed
on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic
form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket
the whole aggregate.
8. TRANSLATION
Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
include the original English version of this License and the
original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a
disagreement between the translation and the original version of
this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will
prevail.
If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
"Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to
Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the
actual title.
9. TERMINATION
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other
attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this
License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
from you under this License will not have their licenses
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
`http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/'.
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
that specified version or of any later version that has been
published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If
the Document does not specify a version number of this License,
you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the
Free Software Foundation.
A.1 ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
========================================================
To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
notices just after the title page:
Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME.
Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2
or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
Free Documentation License''.
If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover
Texts, replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts
being LIST.
If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
situation.
If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to
permit their use in free software.
