Credit also goes to:

• The authors of the GMP library and the Python wrapper gmpy, enabling mpmath to become much faster at high precision

• The authors of MPFR, pari/gp, MPFUN, and other arbitrary- precision libraries, whose documentation has been helpful for implementing many of the algorithms in mpmath

• Wikipedia contributors; Abramowitz & Stegun; Gradshteyn & Ryzhik; Wolfram Research for MathWorld and the Wolfram Functions site. These are the main references used for special functions implementations.

• George Brandl for developing the Sphinx documentation tool used to build mpmath’s documentation

1. Download & installation

Mpmath requires Python 3.8 or later versions. It has been tested with CPython 3.8 through 3.12 and for PyPy.

The latest release of mpmath can be downloaded from the mpmath website and from https://github.com/mpmath/mpmath/releases

It should also be available in the Python Package Index at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mpmath

To install latest release of Mpmath with pip, simply run

pip install mpmath

or from the source tree

pip install .

The latest development code is available from https://github.com/mpmath/mpmath

See the main documentation for more detailed instructions.

2. Documentation

Documentation in reStructuredText format is available in the docs directory included with the source package. These files are human-readable, but can be compiled to prettier HTML using Sphinx.

The most recent documentation is also available in HTML format:

https://mpmath.org/doc/current/

3. Running tests

The unit tests in mpmath/tests/ can be run with pytest, see the main documentation.

You may also want to check out the demo scripts in the demo directory.

The master branch is automatically tested on the Github Actions.

4. Known problems

Mpmath is a work in progress. Major issues include:

• Some functions may return incorrect values when given extremely large arguments or arguments very close to singularities.

• Directed rounding works for arithmetic operations. It is implemented heuristically for other operations, and their results may be off by one or two units in the last place (even if otherwise accurate).

• Some IEEE 754 features are not available. Inifinities and NaN are partially supported; denormal rounding is currently not available at all.

• The interface for switching precision and rounding is not finalized. The current method is not threadsafe.

5. Help and bug reports

General questions and comments can be sent to the mpmath mailinglist, mailto:[e-mail]

You can also report bugs and send patches to the mpmath issue tracker, https://github.com/mpmath/mpmath/issues
