+The bigfloat module is a Python wrapper for the MPFR library for
+arbitrary precision floating-point reliable arithmetic.
+
+The MPFR library is a well-known portable C library for
+arbitrary-precision arithmetic on floating-point numbers. It provides
+precise control over precisions and rounding modes and gives
+correctly-rounded reproducible platform-independent results.
+
+The bigfloat module aims to provide a convenient and friendly Python
+interface to the operations and functions provided by the MPFR library.
+The main class, BigFloat, gives an immutable multiple-precision
+floating-point type that can be freely mixed with Python integers and
+floats. The Context class, when used in conjunction with Pythons with
+statement, gives a simple way of controlling precisions and rounding
+modes. Additional module-level functions provide various standard
+mathematical operations. There is full support for IEEE 754 signed
+zeros, nans, infinities and subnormals.
