Bignum support in C++
I didn't realize that so many people would be interested in big integer support in C++. But since I have received several requests already, I will just post to the whole list. I will be setting up a small web site tonight or tomorrow, so that anyone who desires may view the code for supporting large integers in C++. Do not expect bulletproof optimized code. I will post the URL when it is ready. -James
Actually, Wei Dai's Crypto++ library contains a fairly good BigNum package (actually, the MPI code from PGP 2.6.2, I believe ;) wrapped in C++. So, there is no need to do any work, just grab Wei's library and use the bignums out of there. -derek
Okay, I setup a quick web site for the large integer class I talked about yesterday. The URL is http://www.mit.edu:8001/people/grimm/Int/Int.home.html Included in the package is a quick demonstration using Fibonacci numbers. (Beware: the code as-is spits everything out in hex.) Comments, suggestions, etc. are always welcome. -James
