In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-gmpy2 in Fedora 36. python3-gmpy2 is Python 3 interface to GMP, MPFR, and MPC

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-gmpy2 on Fedora 36.

What is `python3-gmpy2`

This package contains a C-coded Python extension module that supports multiple-precision arithmetic. It is the successor to the original gmpy module. The gmpy module only supported the GMP multiple-precision library. Gmpy2 adds support for the MPFR (correctly rounded real floating-point arithmetic) and MPC (correctly rounded complex floating-point arithmetic) libraries. It also updates the API and naming conventions to be more consistent and support the additional functionality.
