So what can numerics do for you? Carl and Richard talk to Jeffrey Sax about his work building Numerics.NET, a collection of general-purpose mathematical and statistical classes built for .NET. Jeffrey explains that numbers in a computer differ from real numbers in the world; for storage and computational efficiency, typical variable types in any programming language have limits on precision and size. How those variables are used can affect the outcome, with potentially disastrous consequences. Numerics.net provides exacting control of precision, as well as complex mathematical functions. It's far from free - but if you need it, you need it!
