Arbitrary-precision arithmetic on big integers and on rationals.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is a legacy library. It used to be part of the core OCaml distribution (in
|
||
|
otherlibs/num) but is now distributed separately. New applications that need
|
||
|
arbitrary-precision arithmetic should use the Zarith library
|
||
|
(https://github.com/ocaml/Zarith) instead of the Num library, and older
|
||
|
applications that already use Num are encouraged to switch to Zarith. Zarith
|
||
|
delivers much better performance than Num and has a nicer API.
