You need to make sure you have `libgmp-dev `installed and it should provide the `gmp.h` file. Amazingly I seem to have missed that from the docs!

I believe GMP does support it, but this library doesn't as it was written before Go got big.Float support!

I don't have a plan for it. Would you like to submit a Pull Request with support?

This will depend entirely on `libgmp`. I found [a message on the mailing list](https://gmplib.org/list-archives/gmp-discuss/2012-March/004948.html) from 2012 which states > The hard limit for mpz is 2^32-1 *bits*, on a 32-bit...
