flint: Fast Library for Number Theory
An R interface to 'FLINT' <https://flintlib.org/>, a C library for
number theory. 'FLINT' extends GNU 'MP' <https://gmplib.org/>
and GNU 'MPFR' <https://www.mpfr.org/> with support for arithmetic
in standard rings (the integers, the integers modulo n, the
rational, p-adic, real, and complex numbers) as well as vectors,
matrices, polynomials, and power series over rings. 'FLINT'
implements midpoint-radius interval arithmetic, also known as ball
arithmetic, in the real and complex numbers, enabling computation
in arbitrary precision with rigorous propagation of errors; see
Johansson (2017) <doi:10.1109/TC.2017.2690633>. Finally, 'FLINT'
provides ball arithmetic implementations of many
special mathematical functions, with high coverage of reference
works such as the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions
<https://dlmf.nist.gov/>. The R interface defines S4 classes,
generic functions, and methods for representation and basic
operations as well as plain R functions matching (and vectorizing)
entry points in the C library.
