Introduction

Reduced version of the decimal library for CircuitPython

Important Note

From version 1.0.9 through 1.0.12, this package was incorrectly published on pypi under the name circuitpython-jepler-udecimal. The correct package name is jepler-circuitpython-udecimal.

Dependencies

This library depends on:

Adafruit CircuitPython

The library also runs on desktop Python3, and should give numerically identical results across all platorms.

Installing from PyPI

To install for current user:

python3 -mpip install --user jepler-circuitpython-udecimal

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo python3 -mpip install jepler-circuitpython-udecimal

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install jepler-circuitpython-udecimal

Usage Example

>>> from jepler_udecimal import Decimal
>>> Decimal(2)/3
Decimal('0.6666666666666666666666666667')
>>> Decimal('.1') + Decimal('.2') == Decimal('.3')
True
