If I'm doing some kind of testing or other calculations on increasing primes it is very useful just to call that function to get the next one to work with. Right now unless you dig into the code it is hard to tell what the two current prime functions really do. So a new defined function that either provides a way to specify the algorithm to use or have something very clearly defined would be a great benefit. If someone is trying to do work that needs to be repeatable it would be good to have a way for people to say, "Use MPIR with this is_prime/prob_prime function using these parameters" Jeff. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mpir-devel" group.
