libmpdec
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
libmpdec is a fast C/C++ library for correctly-rounded arbitrary precision
|
|
decimal floating point arithmetic. It is a complete implementation of
|
|
Mike Cowlishaw/IBM's General Decimal Arithmetic Specification.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Files required for the Python _decimal module
|
|
=============================================
|
|
|
|
Core files for small and medium precision arithmetic
|
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
basearith.{c,h} -> Core arithmetic in base 10**9 or 10**19.
|
|
bits.h -> Portable detection of least/most significant one-bit.
|
|
constants.{c,h} -> Constants that are used in multiple files.
|
|
context.c -> Context functions.
|
|
io.{c,h} -> Conversions between mpd_t and ASCII strings,
|
|
mpd_t formatting (allows UTF-8 fill character).
|
|
mpalloc.{c,h} -> Allocation handlers with overflow detection
|
|
and functions for switching between static
|
|
and dynamic mpd_t.
|
|
mpdecimal.{c,h} -> All (quiet) functions of the specification.
|
|
typearith.h -> Fast primitives for double word multiplication,
|
|
division etc.
|
|
|
|
Visual Studio only:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
vccompat.h -> snprintf <==> sprintf_s and similar things.
|
|
vcdiv64.asm -> Double word division used in typearith.h. VS 2008 does
|
|
not allow inline asm for x64. Also, it does not provide
|
|
an intrinsic for double word division.
|
|
|
|
Files for bignum arithmetic:
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
The following files implement the Fast Number Theoretic Transform
|
|
used for multiplying coefficients with more than 1024 words (see
|
|
mpdecimal.c: _mpd_fntmul()).
|
|
|
|
umodarith.h -> Fast low level routines for unsigned modular arithmetic.
|
|
numbertheory.{c,h} -> Routines for setting up the Number Theoretic Transform.
|
|
difradix2.{c,h} -> Decimation in frequency transform, used as the
|
|
"base case" by the following three files:
|
|
|
|
fnt.{c,h} -> Transform arrays up to 4096 words.
|
|
sixstep.{c,h} -> Transform larger arrays of length 2**n.
|
|
fourstep.{c,h} -> Transform larger arrays of length 3 * 2**n.
|
|
|
|
convolute.{c,h} -> Fast convolution using one of the three transform
|
|
functions.
|
|
transpose.{c,h} -> Transpositions needed for the sixstep algorithm.
|
|
crt.{c,h} -> Chinese Remainder Theorem: use information from three
|
|
transforms modulo three different primes to get the
|
|
final result.
|
|
|
