=head1 Math::Decimal::FastPP

Math::Decimal::FastPP provides a few common decimal arithmetic and
rounding functions written in pure Perl.  The functions are of course
slower than Perl's built-in binary floating-point math, but they're
faster than L<Math::BigFloat|Math::BigFloat> and other commonly used
decimal math modules.

This module is currently less complete than Perl's built-in math and
other decimal math modules.  So far it only includes addition,
multiplication, and two rounding functions.

Despite the similar name and purpose, this module is not compatible with
L<Math::Decimal|Math::Decimal>.

=head2 INSTALLATION
