Is there any BigDecimal class for C?

Question

I looked all over the internet and I can't seem to find one.

There is something similar in Java, but I need to use C (preferably something I can use locally). Has anyone got any ideas?

Since there is no such thing as a "class" in C, no, no there is not. — Ed S., Jan 26 '11 at 00:13
I did, just trollin' :D. Still, an odd phrase to use when discussing C. — Ed S., Jan 26 '11 at 21:32

Copy of my answer:

If you need to do operations with HUGE decimal values I would suggest you to use http://gmplib.org/ library. I've used it a lot with C and C++.
