XNumbers MultiPrecision Math Library


Visual Basic 6, or VB Classic

A quick note about a great freeware DLL I came across recently.

This is just a quick note about a freeware DLL I stumbled across recently. It's called the XNumbers ActiveX Multiprecision Math Library. It was written for use with VB6. As you can see from the screen shot it fits in perfectly with a VB6 project I've been working on for quite some time now. XNumbers is a simple-to-use DLL that you register with REGSVR32.EXE. Include a reference in your project like this:
Dim XPM As New XNumbers
and you're ready to go. The site says it doesn't work with Win98 but I use it with XP
and 98 with no problem. Anyone doing mathematically-oriented projects and wanting higher precision than normally allowed might want to check it out. It comes with .PDF
documentation and has a vast array of callable functions (including a built-in high-precision expression parser).
Hope this helps someone. I'd be interested in hearing if it works well for you.
The site's address/download page is:

Product created by Leonardo Volpi and the Foxes Team.
If you like this, thank him! I can't believe they're just giving this away.
