	      Either a GMP number resource in PHP 5.5 and earlier, a GMP object in PHP 5.6 and later, or a numeric string provided that it is pos-
	      sible to convert the latter to a number.

RETURN VALUES

	A GMP number resource in PHP 5.5 and earlier, or a GMP object in PHP 5.6 and later.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      gmp_div_q(3) example

	      <?php
	      $div1 = gmp_div_q("100", "5");
	      echo gmp_strval($div1) . "
";

	      $div2 = gmp_div_q("1", "3");
	      echo gmp_strval($div2) . "
";

	      $div3 = gmp_div_q("1", "3", GMP_ROUND_PLUSINF);
	      echo gmp_strval($div3) . "
";

	      $div4 = gmp_div_q("-1", "4", GMP_ROUND_PLUSINF);
	      echo gmp_strval($div4) . "
";

	      $div5 = gmp_div_q("-1", "4", GMP_ROUND_MINUSINF);
	      echo gmp_strval($div5) . "
";
	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      20
	      0
	      1
	      0
	      -1

NAME

       Math::GMP - High speed arbitrary size integer math

SYNOPSIS

	 use Math::GMP;
	 my $n = new Math::GMP 2;

	 $n = $n ** (256*1024);
	 $n = $n - 1;
	 print "n is now $n
";

DESCRIPTION

       Math::GMP was designed to be a drop-in replacement both for Math::BigInt and for regular integer arithmetic.  Unlike BigInt, though,
       Math::GMP uses the GNU gmp library for all of its calculations, as opposed to straight Perl functions.  This can result in speed
       improvements.

       The downside is that this module requires a C compiler to install -- a small tradeoff in most cases. Also, this module is not 100%
       compatible to Math::BigInt.

       A Math::GMP object can be used just as a normal numeric scalar would be -- the module overloads most of the normal arithmetic operators to
       provide as seamless an interface as possible. However, if you need a perfect interface, you can do the following:

	 use Math::GMP qw(:constant);

	 $n = 2 ** (256 * 1024);
	 print "n is $n
";

       This would fail without the ':constant' since Perl would use normal doubles to compute the 250,000 bit number, and thereby overflow it into
       meaninglessness (smaller exponents yield less accurate data due to floating point rounding).

METHODS

       Although the non-overload interface is not complete, the following functions do exist:

   new
	 $x = Math::GMP->new(123);

       Creates a new Math::GMP object from the passed string or scalar.

	 $x = Math::GMP->new('abcd', 36);

       Creates a new Math::GMP object from the first parameter which should be represented in the base specified by the second parameter.

   bfac
	 $x = Math::GMP->new(5);
	 $x->bfac();	  # 1*2*3*4*5 = 120

       Calculates the factorial of $x and modifies $x to contain the result.

   band
	 $x = Math::GMP->new(6);
	 $x->band(3);	   # 0b110 & 0b11 = 1

       Calculates the bit-wise AND of it's two arguments and modifies the first argument.

   bxor
	 $x = Math::GMP->new(6);
	 $x->bxor(3);	   # 0b110 & 0b11 = 0b101

       Calculates the bit-wise XOR of it's two arguments and modifies the first argument.

   bior
	 $x = Math::GMP->new(6);
	 $x->bior(3);	   # 0b110 & 0b11 = 0b111

       Calculates the bit-wise OR of it's two arguments and modifies the first argument.

   bgcd
	 $x = Math::GMP->new(6);
	 $x->bgcd(4);	   # 6 / 2 = 2, 4 / 2 = 2 => 2

       Calculates the Greatest Common Divisior of it's two arguments and returns the result.

   legendre
   jacobi
   fibonacci
	 $x = Math::GMP->fibonacci(16);

       Calculates the n'th number in the Fibonacci sequence.

   probab_prime
	 $x = Math::GMP->new(7);
	 $x->probab_prime(10);

       Probabilistically Determines if the number is a prime. Argument is the number of checks to perform. Returns 0 if the number is definitely
       not a prime, 1 if it may be, and 2 if it is definitely is a prime.

BUGS

       As of version 1.0, Math::GMP is mostly compatible with the old Math::BigInt version. It is not a full replacement for the rewritten
       Math::BigInt versions, though. See the SEE ALSO section on how to achieve to use Math::GMP and retain full compatibility to Math::BigInt.

       There are some slight incompatibilities, such as output of positive numbers not being prefixed by a '+' sign.  This is intentional.

       There are also some things missing, and not everything might work as expected.

SEE ALSO

       Math::BigInt has a new interface to use a different library than the default pure Perl implementation. You can use, for instance, Math::GMP
       with it:

	 use Math::BigInt lib => 'GMP';

       If Math::GMP is not installed, it will fall back to it's own Perl implementation.

       See Math::BigInt and Math::BigInt::GMP or Math::BigInt::Pari or Math::BigInt::BitVect.
