 \section{Decimal Floating Point Arithmetic\label{decimal-fp}}
 
-The \module{decimal} module offers a \class{Decimal} datatype for
-decimal floating point arithmetic.  Compared to the built-in \class{float}
-implementation of binary floating point, the new class is especially
-helpful for financial applications and other uses which require exact
-decimal representation, control over precision, control over rounding
-to meet legal or regulatory requirements, tracking of significant
-decimal places, or for applications where the user expects the results
-to match hand calculations as taught in school.
+The \ulink{\module{decimal}}{../lib/module-decimal.html} module offers a

 For example, calculating a 5\%{} tax on a 70 cent phone charge gives
 different results in decimal floating point and binary floating point.
