I'm puzzled by the description of this function which says that the base may vary from 2..36 and -2..-36, but then goes on to describe the allowed chars in the string for bases 37..62. Also, I see that you use the same odd rules as does GMP for different bases. That is, Bases Allo

Do the internal library assembly functions work with 64 bit inputs, or do they rely on extending 32 bit inputs? On 25 October 2011 10:43, Cactus wrote: > The issue of 32/64-bit integers on Windows comes up regularly and, after the > recent discussion, I have been wondering if there is a > relativ

[mpir-devel] MPIR support for 64-bit integers on Windows

2011-10-25 Thread Cactus
The issue of 32/64-bit integers on Windows comes up regularly and, after the recent discussion, I have been wondering if there is a relatively easy implementation strategy. Since we already know from 64-bit Unix/Linux distributions that the existing *_ui and *_si functions work when signed and
