Computations with decimals (arbitrary precision)

Hello everybody ! I’m busy now with studying the speed of convergence of sequences of real numbers. I begin to study classical algorithms like Archimedes polygonal approximation of pi, and newton computations of a square root. I already illustrated with some simple python programs and I want to translate into Julia . Here’s an example : from decimal import Decimal, getcontext def u(n): if n == 0: return Decimal(1) return (u(n - 1) + (2 - u(n - 1) * u(n - 1)) / (2 * u(n …
