-This is a Py2.3 implementation of decimal floating point arithmetic based on
-the General Decimal Arithmetic Specification:
-
-    www2.hursley.ibm.com/decimal/decarith.html
-
-and IEEE standard 854-1987:
-
-    www.cs.berkeley.edu/~ejr/projects/754/private/drafts/854-1987/dir.html
-
-Decimal floating point has finite precision with arbitrarily large bounds.
-
-The purpose of the module is to support arithmetic using familiar
-"schoolhouse" rules and to avoid the some of tricky representation
-issues associated with binary floating point.  The package is especially
-useful for financial applications or for contexts where users have
-expectations that are at odds with binary floating point (for instance,
-in binary floating point, 1.00 % 0.1 gives 0.09999999999999995 instead
-of the expected Decimal("0.00") returned by decimal floating point).
-
-Here are some examples of using the decimal module:

->>> from decimal import *
->>> setcontext(ExtendedContext)
->>> Decimal(0)
-Decimal("0")
->>> Decimal("1")
-Decimal("1")

-Decimal("1.2345E+12345678901234567892")
->>> Decimal("1.33") + Decimal("1.27")
-Decimal("2.60")
->>> Decimal("12.34") + Decimal("3.87") - Decimal("18.41")
-Decimal("-2.20")
->>> dig = Decimal(1)
->>> print dig / Decimal(3)
-0.333333333
->>> getcontext().prec = 18
->>> print dig / Decimal(3)
