Hello,
I would like to run certain entire maxima sessions in high precision
arithmetic.
I have tried setting fpprec: 32.
The numbers get listed as having that precision. But, it seems that
floating point errors I expect from functions with standard double
precision are still there. Does every single variable in an
expression have to be converted?
Is it expected that, once one sets fpprec: 32, all further
computations, even with previously defined functions, will be at that
precision?
Thanks for any info.
