README
HasBigDecimal
This module defines the type 'BigDecimal' which provides a representation of arbitrary precision decimal numbers. 'BigDecimal' is a native Haskell implementation based on arbitrary sized 'Integer' values. The implementation was inspired by Java BigDecimals.
BigDecimal instantiates the typeclasses 'Num', 'Fractional' and 'Real'. It is thus possible to use all common operators like '+', '-', '*', '/', '' on them.
Some examples from a ghci REPL
λ> a = BigDecimal 144 2
λ> toString a
"1.44"
λ> b = sqrt a
λ> toString b
"1.2"
λ> b * b
BigDecimal 144 2
λ> b * b * b
BigDecimal 1728 3
λ> b^2
BigDecimal 144 2
λ> c = fromString "123.4567890"
λ> c
BigDecimal 1234567890 7
λ> a / c
BigDecimal 1166400010614240096589584878965222398584 41
λ> roundBD it (halfUp 10)
BigDecimal 116640001 10
λ> divide (a, c) $ halfUp 20
BigDecimal 1166400010614240097 20
BigFloating
in addition to the pretty complete BigDecimal module there is the rather scetchy BigFloating module. BigFloating contains a few first step to let BigDecimal instantiate the Floating typeclass. As of now it contains arbitrary precision implementations for pi (based on Chudnovskis algorithm), sqrt and nthroot (based on Newtons classic algorithm). All trigonometric functions, log and exp are still missing. All code contributions are most welcome! Here are some working examples:
λ> r = sqrt (BigDecimal 2 0)
λ> toString r
