      /* The default constructor initializes the object to the value 0.
         It's efficient to instantiate such zero-initialized objects because
         all of them will share the same mpfr data. (Also any object initialized
         with or assigned the explicit value of zero will also share that one
         mpfr data.) Thus multiple zero-initialized MpfrFloat instances won't
         consume significant amounts of memory (until they are modified to
         contain some other value, of course).
  
         Important caveat:
         ----------------
         Note that initializing an MpfrFloat object with, for example, 0.1 will
         suffer from accuracy problems (at least if the MpfrFloat object has
         more mantissa bits than a double). The C++ double value 0.1 has only
         53 mantissa bits, while the MpfrFloat object usually has more. If the
         MpfrFloat object is initialized with a double, only that many bits of
         accuracy will end up in the value of the MpfrFloat object. This can
         create significant rounding/accuracy problems in some cases.
         If you need to initialize the MpfrObject with some value (which cannot
         be represented accurately by base-2 floating point numbers, eg. 0.1)
         at full mantissa precision, you have to use parseValue("0.1") instead,
         rather than relying on the constructor taking a double type value.

         several objects. If the calling code needs to modify the data, it
         should copy it for itself first with the appropriate MPFR library
         functions.
