I'm curious about the issues you faced. Could you share some of them?
I have used it only lightly, but I always liked its simplistic API.
Also, I thought the performance was unbeatable at what it does (of course not comparable with native integers). And I am very impressed by the algorithms implemented (all the different multiplications at various integer widths, for example).
- OskarS 5y agoI've also only used it lightly, but like you I don't remember having much trouble with the API, seemed like a pretty regular C library to me. I wanted some example programs to see how the API looked in use, and the manual said they were in the demos/ folder of the repository. So I clicked the link to the repository, and got this: [1] ("Internal Server Error"), which is honestly pretty concerning... There's a GitHub mirror though, and the API looks perfectly usable to me [2].
