Re: [boost] Infinite precision integer

David,
In my design document I mention
GMP as existing practice.
The basic assembler method for example
for multiplying is of course identical.
But the large multiplications are different,
see my document
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2004/n1718.pdf
Another difference is that I use C++ in
my implementation, while GMP uses C
with a C++ wrapper interface.
By the way I am already implementing
the real, and computed 10^8 decimals of
square roots and pi with my implementation,
checked with a computer algebra program.
After I submitted my source code to boost
I assume it will be as public domain as GMP is,
but subject to the boost license.
Regards, Maarten.
