Please note that this list is currently incomplete. For more information look at the user manual and the documented source code sourcexint.pdf.

Unless otherwise specified all changes commented upon here regard xintexpr. Important: all the new syntax is to be considered experimental. The author may change some names in future release, or even the interface (whether to use semi-colons or colons etc…).

Bug fixes

Bugs? Those identified in 1.3f were almost features. As per 1.4 the code base of xintexpr received multiple successive core refactorings and added numerous new features, and our test suite although significantly enlarged is not yet extensive enough. Please report bugs by mail.

Initial announcement:

The xint package implements with expandable TeX macros the basic arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, as applied to arbitrarily long numbers represented as chains of digits with an optional minus sign.

The xintgcd package provides implementations of the Euclidean algorithm and of its typesetting.

The packages may be used with Plain and with LaTeX.
