p5-Bit-Vector-7.4p2

library of advanced math functions

Back to search · Project homepage

Description

Bit::Vector is an efficient C library which allows you to handle bit vectors, sets (of integers), "big integer arithmetic" and boolean matrices, all of arbitrary sizes. The library is efficient (in terms of algorithmic complexity) and therefore fast (in terms of execution speed) for instance through the widespread use of divide-and-conquer algorithms. The package also includes an object-oriented Perl module for accessing the C library from Perl, and optionally features overloaded operators for maximum ease of use. The C library can nevertheless be used stand-alone, without Perl.
