- 21:51 Design #1182: "mod" for BigInt
- A quick look on the internet suggests that @a%b@ is uniquely defined only if @a@ is non-negative and @b@ is positive;...

- 19:29 Design #1182: "mod" for BigInt
- hmmm, I had a negative n, I didn't think of the different behaviour with negative entries.
I suppose I need to read ... - 19:21 Design #1182: "mod" for BigInt
- Wait! I need to make a check....
- 19:12 Design #1182 (Closed): "mod" for BigInt
- n % m, with n,m BigInt gives negative values.
Whether this is reasonable when working in FFp, I find it odd for BigI... - 19:08 Support #847: Doc for BigInt, BigIntOps, BigRat -- should there be BigRatOps?
- Should it be @BigIntOps@?

- 12:30 Slug #1181 (In Progress): CpuTime is costly!
- It might be useful to have something like @ProgressReporter@ which sets a flag when a time-limit has been exceeded?
... - 12:25 Slug #1181: CpuTime is costly!
- I found the problem with an _ad hoc_ program to search for 6x6 matrices with large ratio hadamard/det.
In the main l... - 12:21 Slug #1181 (Closed): CpuTime is costly!
- A call to *@CpuTime()@* is quite costly (on my machine with Fedora 25 Linux).
This means that a calls to @CheckFo... - 11:18 Design #1124: Move examples directory into doc -- or just change makefile?
- I have added a dirty hack to @doc/Makefile@ so that @CopyInfo@ can be compiled even when @libcocoa.a@ does not exist
... - 11:05 Design #1180 (Resolved): BigRat(0) unexpectedly compiles! (calls ctor with mpq_t arg)
- The impl has been modified:
* @BigInt@ ctor from @mpz_t@ and from @std::string@ now take 2 args, and are @private@; ...

- 17:58 Design #1180: BigRat(0) unexpectedly compiles! (calls ctor with mpq_t arg)
- Since the ambiguity of @BigInt(0)@ derives from the fact that @std::string@ has an implicit ctor from @char*@, it may...
- 11:59 Design #1180: BigRat(0) unexpectedly compiles! (calls ctor with mpq_t arg)
- I have replaced the ctor @BigInt(mpz_t)@ by one which requires a second arg (@CopyFromMPZ@), and then changed all cod...

- 20:24 Design #1180: BigRat(0) unexpectedly compiles! (calls ctor with mpq_t arg)
- The situation is more complicated than I'd like. Here I'll write about @BigInt@, but it applies just as much to @Big...
- 14:34 Design #1180 (In Progress): BigRat(0) unexpectedly compiles! (calls ctor with mpq_t arg)

- 14:10 Design #1180: BigRat(0) unexpectedly compiles! (calls ctor with mpq_t arg)
- The problem turned out to be that *@2/3@* is evaluated by the compiler to produce @0@ (integer division); this is the...

It may also help solve nicely a silly but annoying problem with the compilation of @CopyI...
