[API Changes]
- prev_prime($n) where $n <= 2 now returns undef instead of 0. This
may enable catching range errors, and is technically more correct.
- nth_prime(0) now returns undef instead of 0. This should help catch
cases where the base wasn't understood. The change is similar for
all the nth_* functions (e.g. nth_twin_prime).
- sumdigits(n,base) will interpret n as a number in the given base,
rather than the Pari/GP method of converting decimal n to that base
then summing. This allows sumdigits to easily sum hex strings.
The old behavior is easily done with vecsum(todigits(n, base)).
- binary() was not intended to be released (todigits and todigitstring
are supersets), but the documentation got left in. Remove docs.
[ADDED]
- addmod(a, b, n) a + b mod n
- mulmod(a, b, n) a * b mod n
- divmod(a, b, n) a / b mod n
- powmod(a, b, n) a ^ b mod n
- sqrtmod(a, n) modular square root
- is_euler_pseudoprime(n,a[...]) Euler test to given bases
- is_primitive_root(r, n) is r a primitive root mod n
- is_quasi_carmichael(n) is n a Quasi-Carmichael number
- hclassno(n) Hurwitz class number H(n) * 12
- sieve_range(n, width, depth) sieve to given depth, return offsets
[FUNCTIONALITY AND PERFORMANCE]
- Fixed incorrect table entries for 2^16th Ramanujan prime count and
nth_ramanujan_prime(23744).
- foroddcomposites with certain arguments would start with 10 instead of 9.
- lucasu and lucasv should return bigint types.
- vecsum will handle 128-bit sums internally (performance increase).
- Speedup is_carmichael.
- Speedup znprimroot, 10% for small inputs, 10x for large composites.
- Speedup znlog ~2x. It is now Rho racing an interleaved BSGS.
- Change AKS to Bernstein 2003 theorem 4.1.
5-20x faster than Bornemann, 20000+x faster than V6.
- sum_primes now uses tables for native sizes (performance increase).
- ramanujan_tau uses Cohen's hclassno method instead of the sigma
calculation. This is 3-4x faster than the GMP code for inputs > 300k,
and much faster than the older PP code.
- fromdigits much faster for large base-10 arrays. Timing is better than
split plus join when output is a bigint.
