libbeef: A Rust Port of Fabrice Bellard's Arbitrary-Precision Floating-Point Library
By
serialx
Summary
A Rust port of Fabrice Bellard's libbf (libbeef / "Beeg Float") — a tiny arbitrary-precision floating-point library. It supports full IEEE 754 semantics, transcendental functions, decimal floating point (BigDecimal), no_std compatibility, and is pure Rust with zero dependencies. The README provides a quick example using Float<F> with compile-time format configuration.
