Attention

GPU users: GPU nodes run EL9, while this documentation still reflects the EL7 software stack.

Run module avail on an EL9 login node, or within an interactive session on the relevant GPU type, to see the software available.

The documentation will be updated once all nodes have migrated to EL9.

GnuMP

GnuMP is a portable library written in C for arbitrary precision arithmetic on integers, rational numbers, and floating-point numbers. It aims to provide the fastest possible arithmetic for all applications that need higher precision than is directly supported by the basic C types.

Usage

After connecting to Stanage (see Establishing a SSH connection), start an interactive session with the following command:

srun --pty bash -i

GnuMP can be activated as follows:

module load GMP/6.2.1-GCCcore-12.2.0
module load GMP/6.2.1-GCCcore-11.3.0
module load GMP/6.2.1-GCCcore-11.2.0
module load GMP/6.2.1-GCCcore-10.3.0
module load GMP/6.2.0-GCCcore-10.2.0
module load GMP/6.2.0-GCCcore-9.3.0
module load GMP/6.1.2-GCCcore-8.3.0
module load GMP/6.1.2-GCCcore-7.3.0

module load GMP/6.2.1-GCCcore-12.2.0
module load GMP/6.2.1-GCCcore-11.3.0
module load GMP/6.2.1-GCCcore-11.2.0

Installation notes

GnuMP was installed using Easybuild 4.7.0, build details can be found in $EBROOTGMP/easybuild with the module loaded.
