Abstract [eng] |
Searching on the Internet you can find lots of arithmetic libraries suitable for work with large numbers. Unfortunately, some of them lack support for floating point numbers or are limited for arbitrary precision arithmetic. There is big demand for such libraries in cryptography, scientific computation, financial sector, etc. They need effective, accurate arithmetic operations with large numbers. The main purpose was to make a data type library for arbitrary precision arithmetic, which could operate on integer and floating point numbers. There are no practical limits to precision except the ones implied by the available memory on the machine. This library provides standard arithmetic operations: adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing and power of integer degree. It allows using large numbers in the same way as the standard data types (integer, float, etc.). |
