This package provides a haskell datatype for representing and pretty-printing arbitrary-precision numbers using scientific notation.

its primary use-case is to serve as the target of parsing floating point numbers. since the textual representation of floating point numbers use scientific notation they can be efficiently parsed to a scientific number.

this package provides a library for the haskell programming language, compiled for profiling. see http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on haskell.
