What is arprec-tools

This is a complete interactive high-precision arithmetic computing environment. One enters expressions in a Mathematica-style syntax, and the operations are performed using the ARPREC package, with a level of precision that can be set from 100 to 1000 decimal digit accuracy. Variables and vector arrays can be defined and referenced. This program supports all basic arithmetic operations, common transcendental and combinatorial functions, multi-pair PSLQ (one-, two- or three-level versions), high-precision quadrature, i.e. numeric integration (Gaussian, error function or tanh-sinh), and summation of series.
