Changelog of @hackage/scientific 0.3.4.8

0.3.4.8 * Make bytestring-builder's installation conditional based on a Cabal flag.

0.3.4.7 * Unconditionally export Data.ByteString.Builder.Scientific. The bytestring-builder cabal flag has been removed. Depend on bytestring-builder for backwards compatibility for GHC < 7.8.

0.3.4.6 * Made toDecimalDigits more similar to floatToDigits

  Previously:

    toDecimalDigits 0 == ([0],1)

  Now:

    toDecimalDigits 0 == ([0],0)

  Because:

    Numeric.floatToDigits 10 (0 :: Double) == ([0],0)


* Introduce a special case for 0 in fromFloatDigits

    fromFloatDigits 0 = 0

  This should fix https://github.com/bos/aeson/issues/369

0.3.4.5 The following are all a courtesy of Oleg Grenrus (phadej):

* Support GHC-8.0.1
* Support binary-0.8
* Enable Travis continuous integration

0.3.4.4 * Improved performance of toDecimalDigits by 13%.

0.3.4.3 * Fix build with integer-simple.

0.3.4.2 * Fix build on GHC-7.4. Courtesy of Adam Bergmark..

0.3.4.1 * Fix build on GHC-7.0.4

0.3.4.0 * Added fromRationalRepetend & toRationalRepetend for safely converting from and to rationals which have a repeating decimal representation like: 1 % 28 = 0.03(571428). * Added a Binary instance. * Various performance improvements. * Support vector-0.11 * Support tasty-0.11 * Support criterion-1.1.0.0

0.3.3.8 * Support QuickCheck-2.8.

0.3.3.7 * Fixed both the

        Prelude Data.Scientific> reads "0.0" :: [(Data.Scientific.Scientific,String)]
        [(0.0,".0"),(0.0,"")]

      problem and the

        read " 8" :: Scientific fails, while read " 8" :: Double succeeds

  problem.

0.3.3.6 * Fixed bug in the x / y method for Scientific. Since I was using the default implementation: x * recip y the operation would diverge when recip y had an infinite decimal output. This shouldn't happen when the result of / is finite again. For example: 0.6 / 0.3 should yield 2.0.

  This is now fixed by using the following implementation:

  `x / y = fromRational $ toRational x / toRational y`

0.3.3.5 * Fixed bug when converting the Scientific: scientific 0 someBigExponent to a bounded Integral using toBoundedInteger or to a bounded RealFloat using toBoundedRealFloat. If someBigExponent was big enough to trigger the big-exponent protection the beforementioned functions didn't return 0.

  This is fixed by explicitly handling a coefficient of 0.

0.3.3.4 * Relax upper version bounds of base and deepseq for the test suite and benchmarks.

0.3.3.3 * Add support for deepseq-1.4.

0.3.3.2 * Fix parsing of empty digit string (#21).

0.3.3.1 * Allow newer tasty, tasty-hunit and criterion.

0.3.3.0 * Add the isFloating or isInteger predicates. Courtesy of Zejun Wu (@watashi). * Add the toRealFloat' and toBoundedInteger functions. Courtesy of Fujimura Daisuke (@fujimura).

0.3.2.2 * Enable package to link with integer-simple instead of integer-gmp using the -finteger-simple cabal flag. Courtesy of @k0ral.

0.3.2.1

* Parameterize inclusion of the Data.ByteString.Builder.Scientific
  module using the bytestring-builder flag. Disabling this flag
  allows building on GHC-7.0.4 which has bytestring-0.9 installed
  by default.

0.3.2.0

* Add the floatingOrInteger function
* Fix build on GHC-7.0.4
* More efficient and better behaving magnitude computation
* Lower the number of cached magnitudes to 324 (same as GHC.Float)

0.3.1.0

* Don't normalize on construction but do it when pretty-printing
  instead. Also provide a manual normalize function.
* Improve efficiency of toRealFloat
* Added note about caching magnitudes
* Dropped dependency on arithmoi
* Make benchmark easier to build
* Add junit XML output support (for Jenkins)

0.3.0.2

* Lower the minimal QuickCheck version.
* Make sure sized exponents are generated in the QuickCheck tests.

0.3.0.1

* Fix build for bytestring-0.10.0.*

0.3.0.0

* Fix a DoS vulnerability that allowed an attacker to crash the
  process by sending a scientific with a huge exponent like
  1e1000000000.
* Fix various RealFrac methods.
* Cache some powers of 10 to speed up the magnitude computation.
* Normalize scientific numbers on construction.
* Move the Text Builder to its own module &
  provide a ByteString builder
* Added more documentation

0.2.0.2

    * Widen the dreaded pointlessly tight upper bounds

0.2.0.1

* Support the latest versions of smallcheck and tasty

0.2.0.0

* added deriving data

0.1.0.1

* Loosen upper bounds on package versions

0.1.0.0

* Fixed bugs & Changed API

0.0.0.2

* Support building the library on GHC >= 7.0.1

0.0.0.1

* Simplification in the Show instance
* Optimization in fromRealFloat

0.0.0.0

* Initial commit
