Description : O'Caml library that implements exact real arithmetic
This module implements exact real arithmetic, following
Val<E9>rie M<E9>nissier-Morain Ph.D. thesis (http://www-calfor.lip6.fr/~vmm/).

A real x is represented as a function giving, for any n, an
approximation zn/4^n of x such that |zn/4^n - x| < 1, where zn is an
arbitrary precision integer (of type Gmp.Z.t).

Coercions from type int, Gmp.Z.t, Gmp.Q.t, basic operations (addition,
subtraction, multiplication, division, power, square root) and
transcendental functions (sin, cos, tan, log, exp, arcsin, arccos,
etc.) and a few constants (pi, e) are provided.

A small reverse-polish calculator is provided to test the library.
