Math::BigInt::FastCalc(3pm)
NAME
Math::BigInt::FastCalc - Math::BigInt::Calc with some XS for more speed
SYNOPSIS
# to use it with Math::BigInt
use Math::BigInt lib => 'FastCalc';
# to use it with Math::BigFloat
use Math::BigFloat lib => 'FastCalc';
# to use it with Math::BigRat
use Math::BigRat lib => 'FastCalc';
DESCRIPTION
Math::BigInt::FastCalc inherits from Math::BigInt::Calc.
Provides support for big integer calculations. Not intended to be used
by other modules. Other modules which sport the same functions can also
be used to support Math::BigInt, like Math::BigInt::GMP or
Math::BigInt::Pari.
In order to allow for multiple big integer libraries, Math::BigInt was
rewritten to use library modules for core math routines. Any module
which follows the same API as this can be used instead by using the
following:
use Math::BigInt lib => 'libname';
'libname' is either the long name ('Math::BigInt::Pari'), or only the
short version like 'Pari'. To use this library:
use Math::BigInt lib => 'FastCalc';
STORAGE
Math::BigInt::FastCalc works exactly like Math::BigInt::Calc. Numbers
are stored in decimal form chopped into parts.
METHODS
The following functions are now implemented in FastCalc.xs:
_is_odd _is_even _is_one _is_zero
_is_two _is_ten
_zero _one _two _ten
_acmp _len
_inc _dec
__strip_zeros _copy

AUTHORS
Original math code by Mark Biggar, rewritten by Tels
<http://bloodgate.com/> in late 2000. Separated from BigInt and shaped
API with the help of John Peacock.
Fixed, sped-up and enhanced by Tels http://bloodgate.com 2001-2003.
Further streamlining (api_version 1 etc.) by Tels 2004-2007.
Bug-fixing by Peter John Acklam <pjacklam@online.no> 2010-2016.
