get_bigfloat_precision
get_bigfloat_precision()
Get the precision (in bits) currently used for BigFloat
arithmetic.
Examples
julia> get_bigfloat_precision()
53
This function get_bigfloat_precision()
returns the precision (in bits) currently used for BigFloat
arithmetic.
Example usage:
julia> get_bigfloat_precision()
53
This example shows that the current precision for BigFloat
arithmetic is 53 bits.
Common mistake example:
julia> get_bigfloat_precision(10)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching get_bigfloat_precision(::Int64)
In this example, the function get_bigfloat_precision()
does not take any arguments. It is important to call the function without any arguments to retrieve the precision value.
