Summary: The Real typedef should be used throughout
Initial Comment:
You have a typedef of real like so:
typedef double Real;
but throughout the code, you use ordinary doubles all
over the place. Hence, the typedef is basically useless.
If (on the other hand) throughout the code you used
Real parameters and Real automatic variables, then I
would be able to use the system with other data types
such as Moshier's Qfloat, Scott's MIRACL, etc. by making
my own typedef as follows:
typedef qfloat Real;
or similar to that.
We need to compute with 100 digits of accuracy, so a
double simply won't do.

Hi,
I have to admit that I even forgot about the Real typedef...
We'll see what we can do. Does a textual replace of all
"double" to "Real" work for you?
And just out of curiosity, 100 digits? What kind of financial
application needs that accuracy?
Bye,
Luigi
