<p>
The following code uses <code class="computeroutput"><span class="special"><</span><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">/</span><span class="identifier">cstdfloat</span><span class="special">.</span><span class="identifier">hpp</span><span class="special">></span></code>
in combination with <code class="computeroutput"><span class="special"><</span><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">/</span><span class="identifier">math</span><span class="special">/</span><span class="identifier">special_functions</span><span class="special">.</span><span class="identifier">hpp</span><span class="special">></span></code> to
compute a simplified version of the <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/LambdaFunction.html" target="_top">Jahnke-Emden-Lambda
function</a>. Here, we specify a floating-point type with <span class="bold"><strong>exactly
64 bits</strong></span> (i.e., <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">float64_t</span></code>).
If we were to use, for instance, built-in <code class="computeroutput"><span class="keyword">double</span></code>,
then there would be no guarantee that the code would behave identically on
all platforms. With <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">float64_t</span></code>
from <code class="computeroutput"><span class="special"><</span><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">/</span><span class="identifier">cstdfloat</span><span class="special">.</span><span class="identifier">hpp</span><span class="special">></span></code>,
however, it is very likely to be identical.
</p>
<p>
Using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">float64_t</span></code>, we know that
this code is as portable as possible and uses a floating-point type with approximately
15 decimal digits of precision, regardless of the compiler or version or operating
system.

<p>
This example shows printing tables of a normal distribution's PDF and CDF,
using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">math</span></code> implmentation of normal.
</p>
<p>
A function templated on floating-point type prints a table for a range of z
values.
</p>
<p>
The example shows use of the specified-width typedefs to either use a specific
width, or to use the maximum available on the platform, perhaps a high as 128-bit.
</p>
<p>
The number of digits displayed is controlled by the precision of the type,
so there are no spurious insignificant decimal digits:
