The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Math::Prime::Util
DSLIP: bdhOp
description: Prime related utilities, including sieves
userid: DANAJ (Dana Jacobsen)
chapterid: 6 (Data_Type_Utilities)
communities:
IRC, github
similar:
Math::Prime::XS Math::Prime::FastSieve Math::Primality
Data::BitStream::XS
rationale:
There are a number of prime related utilities that are not offered
by existing modules, and I believe a new module is a good place for
them. Things like prime_count (exact, approx, upper bound, lower
bound), nth_prime (same), Li(n), R(n), primegap utilities,
factoring, etc. Initially I planned on supporting native Perl data
types (32-bit, 64-bit), but BigInt / GMP may be added later.
I also have faster sieving methods in Data::BitStream::XS that will
move here, as well as more planned. Some of these can be extended to
Math::Prime::FastSieve.
Math::Primality is only partially related. It isn't very complete,
and some of the code is extremely inefficient. It also is targeting
GMP, as compared to using native types.
