GMP (Library)
Introduction
GNU MP is a portable library written in C for arbitrary precision arithmetic on integers, rational numbers, and floating-point numbers. It aims to provide the fastest possible arithmetic for all applications that need higher precision than is directly supported by the basic C types. The main target applications for GMP are cryptography applications and research, Internet security applications, algebra systems, computational algebra research, etc.
