Ticket #137 makes *math-context*</code> settable at the REPL. However, <code>*math-context*
is not a public name in Clojure.
The related public function is with-precision</code> which works by pushing a new binding for <code>*math-context*</code>. This ticket suggests adding <code>set-precision!</code> to Clojure's public API. Its effect would be the same as <code>with-precision</code>, but accomplished by using <code>set!</code> on the current <code>*math-context*
binding rather than by pushing a new binding.
Chouser suggests that we also add a doc string for *math-context*</code> noting that it is private and pointing the user to <code>with-precision</code> and <code>set-precision!
. I agree.
