: Yes, you specify the precision on the command line. Look at the

For precision 100, 1000 or 10,000, please specify: x = ?, y = ?;
You may also point to a file containing the high precision numbers.

You supply the on the command line to the main() program as the first
argument passed into main, as is clear from the snippet shown below.
I guess you are not a C++ programmer.

int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int n, prec, st, st2, N, i;

if (argc != 2 && argc != 3) {
fprintf(stderr, "Usage: timing digits \n"); exit(1);
}
n = atoi(argv[1]);

float_format_t precision = float_format(n);
cl_F x = sqrt (cl_float (3, precision)) - 1;
cl_F y = sqrt (cl_float (5, precision));
cl_F z;

cout << "Prec=" << precision << endl;
