Expandable operations on long numbers.
The bundle provides four packages:
– xint, which provides expandable TeX macros that implement
the basic arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction,
multiplication and division, as applied to arbitrarily long
numbers represented as chains of digits with an optional minus
sign;
– xintgcd, which provides implementations of the
Euclidean algorithm, and of its typesetting;
– xintfrac, which computes fractions using xint;
– xintseries, which computes partial sums using xint;
and
– xintcfrac, which deals with the computation of continued
fractions.
All of the packages’ computations are done in a way that they can operate in an expanding environment.
The packages may be used either with Plain TeX or LaTeX.
