Extracting Integer Part from BigZ Rational Number in R Using GMP Library
R: Extracting Integer Part from BigZ Rational Number Introduction to BigZ and GMP Library in R The Gnu Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library (GMP) is a collection of functions for arithmetic operations with arbitrary-precision numbers. In R, the gmp package provides an interface to access these functions. The bigz function in particular allows us to work with big integers. R’s as.numeric() function attempts to convert a numeric value to a numerical type by default, which can lead to loss of precision if the number is too large.
