Abstract

Traditional notations (programming languages) are seldom adequate for the description of multiple-precision computations. This is because there is no way to specify how accurately the arithmetic operations should be carried out.

This paper presents a special-purpose programming language which allows multiple-precision algorithms to be stated accurately and elegantly.
