+The MPFR library is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point
+computations with exact rounding (also called correct rounding).  It is
+based on the GMP multiple-precision library and should replace the MPF
+class in further releases of GMP.
+
+  The main goal of MPFR is to provide a library for multiple-precision
+floating-point computation which is both efficient and has a well-defined
+semantics.  It copies the good ideas from the ANSI/IEEE-754 standard for
+double-precision floating-point arithmetic (53-bit mantissa).
