DESCRIPTION

145       This library performs arithmetic operations on integers of arbitrary
146       size. It was written for use in public key cryptography, such as RSA
147       and Diffie-Hellman.
148
149       It uses dynamic memory allocation for storing its data structures.
150       That means that there is no limit on the size of the numbers
151       manipulated by these functions, but return values must always be
152       checked in case a memory allocation error has occurred.
153
154       The basic object in this library is a BIGNUM. It is used to hold a
155       single large integer. This type should be considered opaque and fields
156       should not be modified or accessed directly.
157
158       The creation of BIGNUM objects is described in BN_new(3); BN_add(3)
159       describes most of the arithmetic operations.  Comparison is described
160       in BN_cmp(3); BN_zero(3) describes certain assignments, BN_rand(3) the
161       generation of random numbers, BN_generate_prime(3) deals with prime
162       numbers and BN_set_bit(3) with bit operations. The conversion of
163       BIGNUMs to external formats is described in BN_bn2bin(3).
