The problem I ran into while trying to implement RSA in Common Lisp for my
cryptography class was calculating the square root of a bignum (to
demonstrate the Wiener attack on the cipher). There seems to be no bignum
equivalent to floating point numbers. Are there any libraries that rectify
this issue? I couldn't seem to find any.
