| Subject: | [ANN] surreal is resurrected |
Surreal library is again available from http://www15.ocn.ne.jp/~rodinia/surreal.html Unfortunately, no improvement has been possible (yet). Logarithm and reverse triangular functions are not implemented. Surreal library is an exact real arithmetic library for OCaml. The goal is to do middle-scale computation with 500-2000 operands to exact reals in the reasonable amount of time. To that goal, surreal uses some heuristics to evaluate the value of reals, with optimized algorithms for transcendental functions. By using Numerix, surreal avoids memory allocation overhead, since Numerix uses OCaml heap allocator and GC directly for all memory management. -- Yamagata Yoriyuki
