00003 /* LibTomMath, multiple-precision integer library -- Tom St Denis
00004  *
00005  * LibTomMath is a library that provides multiple-precision
00006  * integer arithmetic as well as number theoretic functionality.
00007  *
00008  * The library was designed directly after the MPI library by
00009  * Michael Fromberger but has been written from scratch with
00010  * additional optimizations in place.
00011  *
00012  * The library is free for all purposes without any express
00013  * guarantee it works.
00014  *
