gmp_libmpf_set_prec Method
Set the precision of rop to be at least prec bits.

Namespace:  Math.Gmp.Native
Assembly:  Math.Gmp.Native (in Math.Gmp.Native.dll) Version: 1.0.0.0 (1.0.0.0)
Syntax
public static void mpf_set_prec(
	mpf_t rop,
	mp_bitcnt_t prec
)

Parameters

rop
Type: Math.Gmp.Nativempf_t
The result float.
prec
Type: Math.Gmp.Nativemp_bitcnt_t
The minimum precision in bits.
Remarks

The value in rop will be truncated to the new precision.

This function requires a call to realloc, and so should not be used in a tight loop.

Examples
// Create and initialize a new floating-point number x.
mpf_t x = new mpf_t();
gmp_lib.mpf_init(x);

// Set its precision to 64 bits.
gmp_lib.mpf_set_prec(x, 64U);

// Assert that the value of x is 0.0, and that its precision is 64 bits.
Assert.IsTrue(gmp_lib.mpf_get_d(x) == 0.0);
Assert.IsTrue(gmp_lib.mpf_get_prec(x) == 64U);

// Release unmanaged memory allocated for x.
gmp_lib.mpf_clear(x);
