It gives similar results and the dependency chain should be much easier. There are a lot of machines that don't have MPFR installed, and some that don't even have GMP. The downside is that Math::AnyNum is a much more functional module that builds on others. But Math::Cephes is pretty cool as a standalone native precision library. I've thought about adding gamma to the ntheory module but it's complicated (for me at least). [[User:Danaj|Danaj]] ([[User talk:Danaj|talk]]) 22:31, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
 
I tried the existing module again, and it still won't even install.
The entire purpose of creating this Rosetta Code page was because I had numerous issues installing libraries in the first place, and I kept getting responses like "but the libraries do work!" despite evidence to the contrary. If a task solution is not portable, it shouldn't be shown. Also, the Perl translation I've done works very differently than the current one, more accurately, as I show. Unlike the current code, I can actually run my code, and it should run anywhere.
What is the Rosetta code policy for using an "alternative solution" on Rosetta Code?
