How To Install arprec on CentOS 7
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install arprec
on CentOS 7.
What is arprec
ARPREC is a software package for performing arbitrary precision arithmetic. It consists of a revision and extension of Bailey’s earlier MPFUN package, enhanced with special IEEE numerical techniques. Features include * Written in C++ for broad portability and fast execution. * Includes C++ and Fortran 90/95 interfaces based on custom data-types and operator/function overloading, which permit the library to be used with only minor modifications for many conventional C++ and Fortran-90 programs. * Includes all of the usual arithmetic operations, as well as many transcendental functions, including cos, sin, tan, arccos, arcsin, arctan, exp, log, log10, erf, gamma and Bessel functions. * Supports three arbitrary precision data-types and mp_complex. * Supports many mixed-mode operations between arbitrary precision variables or constants and conventional variables or constants. * Includes special library routines, incorporating advanced algorithms for extra-high precision (above 1000 digits) computation. * Includes a number of sample application programs, including programs for quadrature (numerical definite integrals), PLSQ (integer relation finding) and polynomial root finding. * Includes the “Experimental Mathematician’s Toolkit”. This is a self-contained interactive program that performs many operations typical of modern experimental mathematics, including arithmetic expressions, common transcendental functions, infinite series evaluation, definite integrals, polynomial roots, user-defined functions, all evaluated to a user-defined level of numeric precision, up to 1000 decimal digits.
We can use yum
or dnf
to install arprec
on CentOS 7. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install arprec.
Install arprec on CentOS 7 Using yum
Update yum database with yum
using the following command.
After updating yum database, We can install arprec
using yum
by running the following command:
Install arprec on CentOS 7 Using dnf
If you don’t have dnf installed you can install DNF on CentOS 7 first.
Update yum database with dnf
using the following command.
After updating yum database, We can install arprec
using dnf
by running the following command:
