Summary: Numbers represented using scientific notation
"Data.Scientific" provides the number type 'Scientific'. Scientific numbers are
arbitrary precision and space efficient. They are represented using
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation scientific notation>.
The implementation uses a coefficient 'c :: 'Integer'' and a base-10 exponent
'e :: 'Int''. A scientific number corresponds to the 'Fractional' number:
''fromInteger' c * 10 '^^' e'.

Note that since we're using an 'Int' to represent the exponent these numbers
aren't truly arbitrary precision. I intend to change the type of the exponent
to 'Integer' in a future release.

The main application of 'Scientific' is to be used as the target of parsing
arbitrary precision numbers coming from an untrusted source. The advantages
over using 'Rational' for this are that:

* A 'Scientific' is more efficient to construct. Rational numbers need to be
constructed using '%' which has to compute the 'gcd' of the 'numerator' and
'denominator'.

* 'Scientific' is safe against numbers with huge exponents. For example:
'1e1000000000 :: 'Rational'' will fill up all space and crash your program.
Scientific works as expected:

>>> read "1e1000000000" :: Scientific 1.0e1000000000

* Also, the space usage of converting scientific numbers with huge exponents to
''Integral's' (like: 'Int') or ''RealFloat's' (like: 'Double' or 'Float') will
always be bounded by the target type.

* Mon May 14 2018 psimons@suse.com
  - Update scientific to version 0.3.6.2.
    * Due to a regression introduced in 0.3.4.14 the RealFrac methods
      and floatingOrInteger became vulnerable to a space blowup when
      applied to scientifics with huge exponents. This has now been
      fixed again.
    * Fix build on GHC < 8.
    * Make the methods of the Hashable, Eq and Ord instances safe to
    use when applied to scientific numbers coming from untrusted
    sources. Previously these methods first converted their arguments
    to Rational before applying the operation. This is unsafe because
    converting a Scientific to a Rational could fill up all space and
    crash your program when the Scientific has a huge base10Exponent.
    Do note that the hash computation of the Hashable Scientific
    instance has been changed because of this improvement!
    Thanks to Tom Sydney Kerckhove (@NorfairKing) for pushing me to
    fix this.
    * fromRational :: Rational -> Scientific now throws an error
    instead of diverging when applied to a repeating decimal. This
    does mean it will consume space linear in the number of digits of
    the resulting scientific. This makes "fromRational" and the other
    Fractional methods "recip" and "/" a bit safer to use.
    * To get the old unsafe but more efficient behaviour the following
    function was added: unsafeFromRational :: Rational -> Scientific.
    * Add alternatives for fromRationalRepetend:
      fromRationalRepetendLimited
      :: Int -- ^ limit
    - > Rational
    - > Either (Scientific, Rational)
      (Scientific, Maybe Int)
      and:
      fromRationalRepetendUnlimited
      :: Rational -> (Scientific, Maybe Int)
      Thanks to Ian Jeffries (@seagreen) for the idea.
    * Dropped upper version bounds of dependencies
      because it's to much work to maintain.
* Tue Jul 11 2017 psimons@suse.com
  - Update to version 0.3.5.1.
* Mon Jul 03 2017 psimons@suse.com
  - Update to version 0.3.4.15 revision 2.
