If your application needs more precision than the built-in integer or floating-point types, C++ provides facilities for creating your own data types that can fulfill this need. There are a variety of libraries that provide such facilities, each with their own class names and API. [Boost.Multiprecision](https://www.boost.org/library/latest/multiprecision/) provides a unified way of interacting with multiple precision integer, rational, real (floating-point) and complex number data types.

This month, Richard Thomson will give us an introduction to using Boost.Multiprecision for floating-point types in order to perform arbitrary zooms into the well known Mandelbrot set fractal.

This will be an online meeting, so drinks and snacks are on you!
