NAME
Math::BigInt::Calc - Pure Perl module to support Math::BigInt
SYNOPSIS
# to use it with Math::BigInt
use Math::BigInt lib => 'Calc';
# to use it with Math::BigFloat
use Math::BigFloat lib => 'Calc';
# to use it with Math::BigRat
use Math::BigRat lib => 'Calc';
DESCRIPTION
Math::BigInt::Calc inherits from Math::BigInt::Lib.
In this library, the numbers are represented in base B = 10**N, where N
is the largest possible value that does not cause overflow in the
intermediate computations. The base B elements are stored in an array,
with the least significant element stored in array element zero. There
are no leading zero elements, except a single zero element when the
number is zero.
For instance, if B = 10000, the number 1234567890 is represented
internally as [7890, 3456, 12].
