+\&\fIBN_bn2bin()\fR converts the absolute value of \fBa\fR into big-endian form
+and stores it at \fBto\fR. \fBto\fR must point to BN_num_bytes(\fBa\fR) bytes of
+memory.
+.PP
+\&\fIBN_bin2bn()\fR converts the positive integer in big-endian form of length
+\&\fBlen\fR at \fBs\fR into a \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR and places it in \fBret\fR. If \fBret\fR is
+\&\s-1NULL,\s0 a new \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR is created.
+.PP
+\&\fIBN_bn2hex()\fR and \fIBN_bn2dec()\fR return printable strings containing the
+hexadecimal and decimal encoding of \fBa\fR respectively. For negative
+numbers, the string is prefaced with a leading '\-'. The string must be
+freed later using \fIOPENSSL_free()\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fIBN_hex2bn()\fR converts the string \fBstr\fR containing a hexadecimal number
+to a \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR and stores it in **\fBa\fR. If *\fBa\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 a new
+\&\fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR is created. If \fBa\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 it only computes the number's
+length in hexadecimal digits. If the string starts with '\-', the
+number is negative.
+A \*(L"negative zero\*(R" is converted to zero.
+\&\fIBN_dec2bn()\fR is the same using the decimal system.
+.PP
+\&\fIBN_print()\fR and \fIBN_print_fp()\fR write the hexadecimal encoding of \fBa\fR,
+with a leading '\-' for negative numbers, to the \fB\s-1BIO\s0\fR or \fB\s-1FILE\s0\fR
+\&\fBfp\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fIBN_bn2mpi()\fR and \fIBN_mpi2bn()\fR convert \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fRs from and to a format
+that consists of the number's length in bytes represented as a 4\-byte
+big-endian number, and the number itself in big-endian format, where
+the most significant bit signals a negative number (the representation
+of numbers with the \s-1MSB\s0 set is prefixed with null byte).
+.PP
+\&\fIBN_bn2mpi()\fR stores the representation of \fBa\fR at \fBto\fR, where \fBto\fR
+must be large enough to hold the result. The size can be determined by
+calling BN_bn2mpi(\fBa\fR, \s-1NULL\s0).
+.PP
+\&\fIBN_mpi2bn()\fR converts the \fBlen\fR bytes long representation at \fBs\fR to
+a \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR and stores it at \fBret\fR, or in a newly allocated \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR
+if \fBret\fR is \s-1NULL.\s0

+used in parsing, or 0 on error, in which
+case no new \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR will be created.
+.PP
+\&\fIBN_print_fp()\fR and \fIBN_print()\fR return 1 on success, 0 on write errors.
+.PP
