ArbitraryArithmetic

Overview

ArbitraryArithmetic builds a custom framework in Java for doing math with high precision — beyond what normal data types can handle. Instead of leaning on Java’s built-in number tools, it stores numbers as strings and handles all the math manually, from scratch, using core arithmetic algorithms.

Features

• Infinite precision for Integers and Floats.
  • Operations include:
    • addition (add)
    • subtraction (subtract)
    • multiplication (multiply)
    • division (divide)
• CLI java file (MyInfArith.class)
• Ant based build system
• A python script for building and running java CLI
• Docker support

Build & Run

Option 1: Using Apache Ant

Compile & Package

ant

ant compile-all

Clean Build

ant clean

---

Option 2: Using the Python Script (run.py)

This script can be used for

1. compiling the java files
2. running the java cli file

It asks for a preference when the script is run.

---

Option 3: Using Docker

Use Docker Image to create a new container

docker run -it docker-image-name bash

Run Program In the new Interactive Docker container

java -cp build MyInfArith <int|float> <add|subtract|multiply|divide> <num1> <num2>
