| Date: Tue, 31 May 2005 15:16:37 +0800 | From: "Chongkai Zhu" <xxxxxx@citiz.net> | | I mentioned Mathematica, only for the "inexact number" part of it, | not the "symbolic manipluation" part of it. For example, if you | want to save the square root of 2 as an inexact number, you can | write: | | v1=1.414 | | the precision or the inexact number v1 is 4 (decimal digits); | | but you can also write | | v2=1.414213562373095048801688724209698078569671875376948073176679737990732478462107038850387534327641573 | | and v2 will get precision 100 (all these digits are saved into memory). So in a Scheme implementation which has "arbitrarily big" precision, how many digits is (sqrt 2)? How many digits is (sin 7/5)?
