Take a look at mpmath which offers real and complex floating-point arithmetic with arbitrary precision.

You can also try numpy (official website).

Does numpy do arbitrary precision floating point? – David Heffernan Mar 08 '11 at 13:45
Hmm, looking at the documentation, it looks like it supports up to 256 bit complex numbers (two 128 floats), supposing your platform supports it. Since numpy has a certain focus on speed, looks like you're limited to what can be supported natively by your computer. – Gordon Seidoh Worley Mar 10 '11 at 01:25
