パッケージ: libghc-double-conversion-doc (2.0.2.0+ds1-4build3)

fast conversion between double precision floating point and text; documentation

A library that performs fast, accurate conversion between double precision floating point and text.

This library is implemented as bindings to the C++ double-conversion library written by Florian Loitsch at Google.

The 'Text' versions of these functions are about 30 times faster than the default 'show' implementation for the 'Double' type.

The 'ByteString' versions are /slower/ than the 'Text' versions; roughly half the speed. (This seems to be due to the cost of allocating 'ByteString' values via malloc.)

As a final note, be aware that the bytestring-show package is about 50% slower than simply using 'show'.

This package provides the documentation for a library for the Haskell programming language. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell.
