...one of the most highly
regarded and expertly designed C++ library projects in the
world.

Boost.Multiprecision was a development from the e_float (TOMS Algorithm 910) library by Christopher Kormanyos.
The e_float library can still be used with Boost.Math. The e_float bindings header has been relocated to the e_float-2021 repository.
New projects are recommended to use Boost.Multiprecision
with one of its backends such as cpp_bin_float
or cpp_dec_float
instead.
