NAME

6       Math::BigInt::GMP - backend library for Math::BigInt etc. based on GMP
7

SYNOPSIS

9           # to use it with Math::BigInt
10           use Math::BigInt lib => 'GMP';
11
12           # to use it with Math::BigFloat
13           use Math::BigFloat lib => 'GMP';
14
15           # to use it with Math::BigRat
16           use Math::BigRat lib => 'GMP';
17

DESCRIPTION

19       Math::BigInt::GMP is a backend library for Math::BigInt,
20       Math::BigFloat, Math::BigRat and related modules.
21
22       Math::BigInt::GMP provides support for big integer calculations by
23       means of the GMP C library. See <https://gmplib.org/> for more
24       information about the GMP library.
25
26       Math::BigInt::GMP no longer uses Math::GMP, but provides its own XS
27       layer to access the GMP C library. This cuts out another (Perl
28       subroutine) layer and also reduces the memory footprint.
29
30       Math::BigInt::GMP inherits from Math::BigInt::Lib.
