[Numpy-discussion] assigning full precision values to longdouble scalars

2014-02-25 Thread Scott Ransom
Hi All, So I have a need to use longdouble numpy scalars in an application, and I need to be able to reliably set long-double precision values in them. Currently I don't see an easy way to do that. For example: In [19]: numpy.longdouble("1.12345678901234567890") Out[19]: 1.123456789012345691
