Arbitrary precision numeric implementation written in Rust, compatible with PostgreSQL's numeric.
See also: [PostgreSQL Arbitrary Precision Numbers](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/datatype-numeric.html#DATATYPE-NUMERIC-DECIMAL)
This crate provides two types, [`NumericBuf`] and [`Numeric`].
## Usage
To build a numeric, use `NumericBuf`:
```Rust
use pgnumeric::NumericBuf;
let n1: NumericBuf = "123".parse().unwrap();
let n2: NumericBuf = "456".parse().unwrap();
let result = n1 + n2;
assert_eq!(result.to_string(), "579");
```
To build a numeric from Rust primitive types:
```Rust
use pgnumeric::NumericBuf;
let n1: NumericBuf = From::from(123_i32);
let n2: NumericBuf = From::from(456_i32);
let result = n1 + n2;
assert_eq!(result, Into::<NumericBuf>::into(579_i32));
```
Numeric supports high precision arithmetic operations.
```Rust
use pgnumeric::NumericBuf;
let n1: NumericBuf = "123456789.987654321".parse().unwrap();
let n2: NumericBuf = "987654321.123456789".parse().unwrap();
let result = n1 * n2;
assert_eq!(result.to_string(), "121932632103337905.662094193112635269");
let n3 = "170141183460469231731687303715884105727".parse::<NumericBuf>().unwrap();
assert_eq!(n3.sqrt().to_string(), "13043817825332782212")
```
Numeric can be serialized to bytes slice and deserialized from bytes slice.
```Rust
use pgnumeric::{NumericBuf, Numeric};
let n1 = "123456789.987654321".parse::<NumericBuf>().unwrap();
let bytes = n1.as_bytes();
let n2 = unsafe { Numeric::from_bytes_unchecked(bytes) };
assert_eq!(n1, n2);
```
## Rust version requirements
`pgnumeric` works on rust `1.43`.
