[I] The GNU MP (multiple precision arithmetic) library
[T] GNU MP is a library for arbitrary precision arithmetic, operating on signed[T] integers, rational numbers, and floating point numbers. It has a rich set[T] of functions, and the functions have a regular interface.[T] [T] GNU MP is designed to be as fast as possible, both for small operands and[T] for huge operands. The speed is achieved by using fullwords as the basic[T] arithmetic type, by using fast algorithms, by carefully optimized assembly[T] code for the most common inner loops for a lots of CPUs, and by a general[T] emphasis on speed (instead of simplicity or elegance).[T] [T] The speed of GNU MP is believed to be faster than any other similar library.[T] The advantage for GNU MP increases with the operand sizes for certain[T] operations, since GNU MP in many cases has asymptotically faster algorithms.
