bransondavis New Member Branon Davis Join Date: Aug 2022 Posts: 1 Rep Power: 0	I was looking through the openfoam bashrc file and saw under precision that there were 3 options: “SP, DP, and LP.” Obviously SP and DP are single and double precision, but what is LP? Could it be a long double type? I couldn’t find anything on the documentation about this. Is it more precise than double? Thanks!
