GMP

GMP is a free library for arbitrary precision arithmetic, operating on signed integers, rational numbers, and floating point numbers. The main target applications for GMP are cryptography applications and research, Internet security applications, algebra systems, computational algebra research, etc. There is no practical limit to the precision except the ones implied by the available memory in the machine GMP runs on. GMP has a rich set of functions, and the functions have a regular interface.

Runtime:$1/CPU-hr.
What is a CPU-hr.?
A CPU-hr. is the aggregate CPU time spent across all machines, rounded up to the nearest hour (e.g., a task running on 1,000 CPUs for one minute = 1,000 CPU minutes or approximately 17 CPU hours, costing you only $17).

Key Features

- GMP is faster than any other bignum library. The advantage for GMP increases with the operand sizes for many operations, since GMP uses asymptotically faster algorithms.
- There are several categories of functions in GMP, including high-level signed integer arithmetic functions, high-level rational arithmetic functions, high-level floating-point arithmetic functions, low-level positive-integer functions, and Berkeley MP compatible functions.
