bignum: Arbitrary-Precision Integer and Floating-Point Mathematics

Classes for storing and manipulating arbitrary-precision integer vectors and high-precision floating-point vectors. These extend the range and precision of the 'integer' and 'double' data types found in R. This package utilizes the 'Boost.Multiprecision' C++ library. It is specifically designed to work well with the 'tidyverse' collection of R packages.
