Comment (by Dave Nalepa <denalepa1@…>):

 #include <iomanip>

 #include <iostream>

 #include <boost/multiprecision/cpp_dec_float.hpp>


 using boost::multiprecision::cpp_dec_float_50;


 int main()

 {

         cpp_dec_float_50 f2 = (cpp_dec_float_50)(1.03559);

         f2 = f2*f2*f2;

         std::cout << "f2 = " << f2 << std::endl;

     return 0;

 }
