Description-en: multiple-precision integer library [development files]
LibTomMath is a C language library that provides a vast array of highly
optimized functions for number theory; including:
.
* Simple Algebra (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division)
* Digit Manipulation (shift, binary AND/OR/XOR)
* Modular Reduction (Barrett, Montgomery, DR, 2k)
* Number Theory
- Greatest Common Divisor
- Least Common Multiple
- Jacobi Symbol Computation
- Multiplicative Inverse
- Modular Exponentiation
- Fermat & Miller-Rabin Primality Tests
* Miscellaneous
- Root finding over Z
- Pseudo-random integers
- Signed & Unsigned comparisons
- Karatsuba and Toom-Cook multiplication algorithms
- Fast Comba based Multiplier, Squaring and Montgomery routines
.
This package contains the files needed to create programs that use LibTomMath.
It is not needed to merely execute programs that use LibTomMath.
