mpfr_libmpfr_set_prec Method
Reset the precision of x to be exactly prec bits, and set its value to NaN.

Namespace:  Math.Mpfr.Native
Assembly:  Math.Mpfr.Native (in Math.Mpfr.Native.dll) Version: 1.0.0.0 (1.0.0.0)
Syntax
Copy
public static void mpfr_set_prec(
	mpfr_t x,
	mpfr_prec_t prec
)

Parameters

x
Type: Math.Mpfr.Nativempfr_t
The floating-point number.
prec
Type: Math.Mpfr.Nativempfr_prec_t
The precision of the significand in bits.
Remarks

The previous value stored in x is lost. It is equivalent to a call to mpfr_clear(x) followed by a call to mpfr_init2(x, prec), but more efficient as no allocation is done in case the current allocated space for the significand of x is enough. The precision prec can be any integer between MPFR_PREC_MIN and MPFR_PREC_MAX. In case you want to keep the previous value stored in x, use mpfr_prec_round instead.

Warning! You must not use this function if x was initialized with mpfr_custom_init_set (see GNU MPFR - Custom Interface).

The function is useful for changing the precision during a calculation. A typical use would be for adjusting the precision gradually in iterative algorithms like Newton-Raphson, making the computation precision closely match the actual accurate part of the numbers.

Examples
Copy
// Create and initialize a new floating-point number x.
mpfr_t x = new mpfr_t();
mpfr_lib.mpfr_init(x);

// Set its precision to 64 bits.
mpfr_lib.mpfr_set_prec(x, 64U);

// Assert that the value of x is 0.0, and that its precision is 64 bits.
Assert.IsTrue(mpfr_lib.mpfr_nan_p(x) != 0);
Assert.IsTrue(mpfr_lib.mpfr_get_prec(x) == 64U);

// Release unmanaged memory allocated for x.
mpfr_lib.mpfr_clear(x);
