-GMP is a free library for arbitrary precision arithmetic, operating
-on signed integers, rational numbers, and floating point numbers.
-There is no 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.
-
-GMP is designed to be as fast as possible, both for small operands
-and for huge operands. The speed is achieved by using fullwords as
-the basic arithmetic type, by using fast algorithms, with carefully
-optimized assembly code for the most common inner loops for a lot of
-CPUs, and by a general emphasis on speed (instead of simplicity or
-elegance).
-
-GMP is believed to be faster than any other similar library. The
-advantage for GMP increases with the operand sizes for certain
-operations, since GMP in many cases has asymptotically faster
-algorithms.
