Is it possible to replace the rust f64 fundamental type with rug::Float types?

If so, which traits must be implemented in order to call svd() on a nalgebra matrix?

  • Have you tried it? What error did you get? It looks like nalgebra relies on num-traits for its genericism, and rug has support for num-traits but you might need to enable [the feature flag for it](https://docs.rs/crate/rug/latest/features#num-traits). – kmdreko Sep 27 '22 at 16:45

    Yes, I've tried and seems that (at least) the nalgebra::ComplexField trait must be implemented for the rug::Float type...the problem is that nalgebra::ComplexField depends (inherits) on other traits, and before embarking myself to implement all the dependencies , it would be better to know if some (deep) structure of nalgebra rely on rust fundamental types or if someone already have done something similar with arbitrary precision floating point types. – Massimiliano Martinelli Sep 27 '22 at 17:25
