This library provides a way to easily handle arbitrary large integers.

This library provides the following operations :

  • addition, substraction, multiplication, division and modulo
  • bits operators (AND, OR, XOR, left and right shifts)
  • boolean operators
  • modular exponentiation (using montgomery algorithm)
  • modular inverse

Example

In this example, we use a 1024 bits long RSA key to encrypt and decrypt a message. We first encrypt the value 0x41 (65 in decimal) and then decrypt it. At the end, m should be equal to 0x41. The encryption is fast (0, 4 second) while the decryption is really slow. This code will take between 30 seconds and 2 minutes to execute depending on the compiler and optimization flags.
