This package contains a C-coded Python extension module that supports
multiple-precision arithmetic. It is the successor to the original
gmpy module. The gmpy module only supported the GMP multiple-precision
library. Gmpy2 adds support for the MPFR (correctly rounded real
floating-point arithmetic) and MPC (correctly rounded complex
floating-point arithmetic) libraries. It also updates the API and
naming conventions to be more consistent and support the additional
functionality.
