set_bigfloat_precision
set_bigfloat_precision(x::Int64)
Set the precision (in bits) to be used to BigFloat arithmetic.
Examples
In the Julia programming language, the function set_bigfloat_precision(x::Int64) is used to set the precision (in bits) to be used for BigFloat arithmetic.
julia> set_bigfloat_precision(256)
256This example sets the precision of BigFloat arithmetic to 256 bits.
Common mistakes users make:
julia> set_bigfloat_precision(0)
ERROR: ArgumentError: precision must be greater than zeroIn this example, the precision value provided is 0, which is not allowed. The precision value should be a positive integer greater than zero.
julia> set_bigfloat_precision(128.5)
ERROR: InexactError: Int64(128.5)Here, a floating-point value is provided instead of an integer. The precision value should be an integer value.
julia> set_bigfloat_precision(-256)
ERROR: ArgumentError: precision must be greater than zeroIn this case, a negative precision value is given. The precision value should be a positive integer greater than zero.
It's important to ensure that the precision value provided is a positive integer greater than zero to avoid errors when using set_bigfloat_precision.
