- Synopsis
- Decimal floating point arithmetic
- Description
deka provides decimal floating point arithmetic. It is based on mpdecimal, the C library used to provide support for the Decimal module in Python 3.
You will need to install mpdecimal to use deka; otherwise your executables will not link. It is available at
http://www.bytereef.org/mpdecimal/
mpdecimal has also been packaged for some Linux distributions, such as Debian (libmpdec-dev - available in Jessie and later) and Arch (mpdecimal).
mpdecimal, in turn, implements the General Decimal Arithmetic Specification, which is available at
http://speleotrove.com/decimal/
For more on deka, please see the Github home page at

Tests are packaged separately in the deka-tests package.
