Description-en: utilities related to prime numbers, including fast sieves and factoring
Math::Prime::Util is a set of perl utilities related to prime
numbers. These include multiple sieving methods, is_prime,
prime_count, nth_prime, approximations and bounds for the prime_count
and nth prime, next_prime and prev_prime, factoring utilities, and
more.
.
The default sieving and factoring are intended to be (and currently are) the
fastest on CPAN, including Math::Prime::XS, Math::Prime::FastSieve,
Math::Factor::XS, Math::Prime::TiedArray, Math::Big::Factors,
Math::Factoring, and Math::Primality (when the GMP module is available). For
numbers in the 10-20 digit range, it is often orders of magnitude faster.
Typically it is faster than Math::Pari for 64-bit operations.
.
All operations support both Perl UV's (32-bit or 64-bit) and bignums. It
requires no external software for big number support, as there are Perl
implementations included that solely use Math::BigInt and Math::BigFloat.
However, performance will be improved for most big number functions by
installing Math::Prime::Util::GMP, and is definitely recommended if you do
many bignum operations. Also look into Math::Pari as an alternative.
