Description : The gmp package contains GNU MP, a library for arbitrary precision
: arithmetic, signed integers operations, rational numbers and floating
: point numbers. GNU MP is designed for speed, for both small and very
: large operands. GNU MP is fast because it uses fullwords as the basic
: arithmetic type, it uses fast algorithms, it carefully optimizes
: assembly code for many CPUs' most common inner loops, and it generally
: emphasizes speed over simplicity/elegance in its operations.

: Install the gmp package if you need a fast arbitrary precision
: library.
