The bodies of the functions returning `mp_int' constants may be copied
into C files generated for other Mercury modules. The globals that
they reference must be visible outside of the `mp_int' module.
extras/mp_int/mp_int.m:
As above.
This adds a new datatype mp_int for faster multi-precision integer
computations. It is based on calling the libtommath library throught the
FFI and works only in the C grades using the Boehm garbage collector.
extras/mp_int/mp_int.m:
Add FFI binding to libtommath with API similar to integer.m
extras/mp_int/mp_int_test.m:
Test basic functionality of mp_int.m.
extras/mp_int/README.txt:
Description of how to download, compile and use the binding
together with the library.
extras/README:
Announce mp_int in extras folder.
