The `gmp_int` back-end is used via the typedef `boost::multiprecision::mpz_int`. It acts as a thin wrapper around the [gmp] `mpz_t`
|
||
|
to provide an integer type that is a drop-in replacement for the native C++ integer types, but with unlimited precision.
|
||
|
|
||
|
As well as the usual conversions from arithmetic and string types, type `mpz_int` is copy constructible and assignable from:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The [gmp] native types: `mpf_t`, `mpz_t`, `mpq_t`.
|
||
|
* Instances of `number<T>` that are wrappers around those types: `number<gmp_float<N> >`, `number<gmp_rational>`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It's also possible to access the underlying `mpz_t` via the `data()` member function of `gmp_int`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Things you should know when using this type:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* No changes are made to the GMP library's global settings - so you can safely mix this type with
|
||
|
existing code that uses [gmp].
|
||
|
* Default constructed `gmp_int`s have the value zero (this is GMP's default behavior).
|
||
|
* Formatted IO for this type does not support octal or hexadecimal notation for negative values,
|
||
|
as a result performing formatted output on this type when the argument is negative and either of the flags
|
||
|
`std::ios_base::oct` or `std::ios_base::hex` are set, will result in a `std::runtime_error` will be thrown.
|
||
|
* Conversion from a string results in a `std::runtime_error` being thrown if the string can not be interpreted
|
||
|
as a valid integer.
|
||
|
* Division by zero results in a `std::overflow_error` being thrown.
|
||
|
* Although this type is a wrapper around [gmp] it will work equally well with [mpir]. Indeed use of [mpir]
|
||
|
is recommended on Win32.
|
||
|
* This backend supports rvalue-references and is move-aware, making instantiations of `number` on this backend move aware.
