Rmpfr provides (S4 classes and methods for) arithmetic including transcendental ("special") functions for arbitrary precision floating point numbers. To this end, it interfaces to the LGPL'ed MPFR (Multiple Precision Floating-Point Reliable) Library which itself is based on the GMP (GNU Multiple Precision) Library.
