Rust crate for arbitrarily big integers, signed or unsigned.
The main API of this crate is to export 2 types: BigUint and BigInt,
meant to represent unsigned or signed integers of arbitrarily large
absolute value. They are meant to be used in almost any way a regular
integer can be used. The only caveat is that they don't implement the
Copy trait ; this means that calling A + B for example will perform
a move operation on A and B, losing ownership of them. Most of the
time you will actually want to call &A + &B, performing the operation
"by reference".
Build, documentation, benchmarks and tests are available the usual way calling the following:
bash
cargo build
cargo docs
cargo bench
cargo test
For benchmarks specifically, you might want to call only some of these:
bash
cargo bench mul
cargo bench add
cargo bench sub
Simply use from the base directory
bash
python3 -m pip install .
Python tests are available to be run in the pytest framework. They are located
in the tests folder and should provide ample example usage.
