This library would not have happened without:
      
- 
            Christopher Kormanyos' C++ decimal number code.
          
- 
            Paul Bristow for patiently testing, and commenting on the library.
          
- 
            All the folks at GMP, MPFR and libtommath, for providing the "guts"
            that makes this library work.
