+--- Day changed Fri Sep 05 2014
+09:26 < matches> It sort of kind of works
+09:26 < matches> Except when it breaks
+09:26 < matches> ParanoidNumber::Simplify needs improvement
+09:26 < matches> Also operator+=
+09:26 < matches> operator-=
+09:26 < matches> operator*=
+09:26 < matches> and operator/=
+09:26 < matches> But it's definitely a number
+09:27 < matches> It just occasionally does things in totally the wrong order'
+09:28 < matches> So basically the idea is if you have an inexact (or overflow/underflow) operation, you delay it, and then in theory you can rearrange the operations so you have a smaller error...
+09:28 < matches> It seems to give better results than floats for tests/paranoidcalculator
+09:29 < matches> But that might be because it is initialised off 3/10 and the float starts at 0.3
+09:30 < matches> It could all be totally useless
+09:30 < matches> It probably is totally useless
+09:31 < matches> I have a hunch that even if it's terrible it might beat true arbitrary precision arithmetic
+09:31 < matches> In terms of actually being able to use it
+09:31 < matches> Who needs mathematics when you have blind intuition...
