| Summary : Math::Fleximal - Integers with flexible representations
|
Description :
This is a package for doing integer arithmetic while using a different
base representation than normal. In base n arithmetic you have n
symbols which have a representation. Author was going to call them
\"glyphs\", but being text strings they are not really. On Tye McQueen\'s
whimsical suggestion the author settled on the name Math::Fleximal,
the set of text representations is called a \"flex\", and the
representation of individual digits are the \"flecks\". These names are
somewhat unofficial... This allows you to do basic arithmetic using
whatever digits you want, and to convert from one to another. Like
Math::BigInt it is able to handle very large numbers, though
performance is not very good.
