libapac is a high-performance arbitrary precision arithmetic library for scientific computing
and number crunching with infinite precision, only limited by the amount of memory on your system.
- Targeted for x86-64 CPUs on Windows OS (Support for ARM64 in future).
- Supports both static and shared library builds.
- Customizable memory allocation functions.
- Dynamic Dispatch at runtime as per appropriate CPU (if supported).
- High-performance low-level APIs that focus on speed and space efficiency.
- Performance-critical functions written in hand-rolled assembly or using C compiler intrinsics.
