Overview
A BigFloat can represent arbitrarily large floats.
It is implemented under the hood with GMP.
NOTE To use BigFloat, you must explicitly import it with require "big"

Description copied from module Comparable(Float)
The comparison operator. Returns 0 if the two objects are equal,
a negative number if this object is considered less than other,
a positive number if this object is considered greater than other,
or nil if the two objects are not comparable.
Subclasses define this method to provide class-specific ordering.
The comparison operator is usually used to sort values:
# Sort in a descending way:
[3, 1, 2].sort { |x, y| y <=> x } # => [3, 2, 1]
# Sort in an ascending way:
[3, 1, 2].sort { |x, y| x <=> y } # => [1, 2, 3]
Description copied from struct Number
Returns the absolute value of this number.
123.abs # => 123
-123.abs # => 123
def round_away : self
#
Rounds towards the nearest integer. If both neighboring integers are equidistant, rounds away from zero.
def round_even : self
#
Rounds towards the nearest integer. If both neighboring integers are equidistant, rounds towards the even neighbor (Banker's rounding).
Description copied from struct Float
Returns a BigInt representing this float (rounded using #floor).
require "big"
1212341515125412412412421.0.to_big_i
Description copied from class Object
Prints a nicely readable and concise string representation of this object, typically intended for users, to io.
This method is called when an object is interpolated in a string literal:
"foo #{bar} baz" # calls bar.to_io with the builder for this stringIO#<< calls this method to append an object to itself:
io << bar # calls bar.to_s(io)Thus implementations must not interpolate self in a string literal or call
io << self which both would lead to an endless loop.
Also see #inspect(IO).
