// This file contains the description of the following classes:
// - Interval_nt<false>  It's a number type that needs the FPU rounding mode
//                       to be set to +inf.  It is also typedef'd to
//                       Interval_nt_advanced for backward compatibility.
// - Interval_nt<true>   Same but it does the rounding mode itself so you
//                       don't have to worry about it.  But it's slower.
//
// Note: When rounding is towards +infinity, to make an operation rounded
// towards -infinity, it's enough to take the opposite of some of the operand,
// and the opposite of the result (see operator+, operator*,...).

// TODO : 
// - test whether stopping constant propagation only in functions taking
//   double as arguments, improves performance.
