Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install decnumber-devel on Fedora 36.

What is decnumber-devel

The decNumber library implements the General Decimal Arithmetic Specification in ANSI C. This specification defines a decimal arithmetic which meets the requirements of commercial, financial, and human-oriented applications. It also matches the decimal arithmetic in the IEEE 754 Standard for Floating Point Arithmetic. The library fully implements the specification, and hence supports integer, fixed-point, and floating-point decimal numbers directly, including infinite, NaN (Not a Number), and subnormal values. Both arbitrary-precision and fixed-size representations are supported. The decnumber-devel package contains libraries and header files for developing applications that use decnumber.
