-\section{Quick introduction}
+\section{Quick introduction}\label{sec:quickintro}
The \xintname bundle consists of three principal components \xintname,
\xintfracname (which loads \xintname), and \xintexprname (which loads
\xintfracname), and four additional modules. They may be used with Plain \TeX{},
-\LaTeX{} or any other macro package based on \TeX{}; the package requires the
+\LaTeX{} or any other macro package based on \TeX{}. The package requires the
\eTeX{} extensions which in modern distributions are made available by default,
except if you invoke \TeX{} under the name |tex| in command line.
The goal is too compute \emph{exactly}, purely by expansion, without
-count registers
-nor assignments nor definitions, with arbitrarily big numbers and fractions. As
-will be commented upon more later, this works fine when the data has
-dozens of digits, but multiplying out two &1000& digits numbers under this
-constraint of expandability is expensive; so in many cases the user will round
-intermediate results. There are also macros working with arbitrary-precision
-floating point numbers (default is &16& digits). The only non-algebraic
-operation which is implemented is the extraction of square roots (with a given
-floating point precision).
-
-Expandability means that one may nest the package macros arbitrarily deep to
-construct complicated (and still completely expandable) computations.
-
-Most users will presumably prefer to use \csb{xintexpr}| ... \relax| parser
-which allows infix notations, function names (corresponding to some of the
-package macros), comparison operators, boolean operators, 2way and 3way
-conditionals.

+fine when the data has dozens of digits, but multiplying out two &1000&
+digits numbers under this constraint of expandability is expensive; so
+in many situations the package will be used for fixed point (rounding or
+truncating each intermediate result) or floating point computations. The
+``floating point'' macros work with a given arbitrary precision (default
+is &16& digits; from the remark made above, beyond &100& digits things
+will start becoming too slow if hundreds of computations are needed). The only
+non-algebraic operation which is currently implemented is the extraction
+of square roots.
+
+The package macros expand their arguments\footnote{see in
+ \autoref{sec:expansions} the related explanations.}; as they are themselves
+completely expandable, this means that one may nest them arbitrarily
+deep to construct complicated (and still completely expandable) formulas.
+
+But one will presumably prefer to use the \csb{xintexpr}| ...
+\relax| parser as it allows infix notations, function names
+(corresponding to some of the package macros), comparison operators,
+boolean operators, 2way and 3way conditionals.
+
+When producing very long numbers there is the question of printing them on
+ the page, without going beyond the page limits. In this document, I have most
+ of the time made use of these little macros (not provided by the package:)

+\section{Recent changes}
+
+\footnotesize
+
+
+\noindent Release |1.09d| (|[2013/10/22]|):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item \csb{xintFor*} is modified to gracefully handle a space token (or
+ more than one) located at the
+ very end of its list argument (as in for example |\xintFor* #1 in
+ {{a}{b}{c}<space>} \do {stuff}|;
+ spaces at other locations were already harmless). Furthermore this new
+version \fexpan ds the un-braced list items. After
+|\def\x{{1}{2}}| and |\def\y{{a}\x {b}{c}\x }|, |\y| will appear to
+\csb{xintFor*} exactly as if it had been defined as
+|\def\y{{a}{1}{2}{b}{c}{1}{2}}|.
+\item same bug fix in \csb{xintApplyInline}.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\noindent Release |1.09c| (|[2013/10/09]|):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item added \hyperlink{item:bool}{|bool|} and \hyperlink{item:bool}{|togl|} to
+ the
+ \csb{xintexpr} syntax; also added \csb{xintboolexpr} and \csb{xintifboolexpr}.
+\item added \csb{xintNewNumExpr} and \csb{xintNewBoolExpr},
+\item \csb{xintFor} is a new type of loop, whose replacement text inserts the
+ comma separated values or list items via macro parameters, rather than
+ encapsulated in macros; the loops are nestable up to four levels,
+ and their replacement texts are allowed to close groups as happens with the
+ tabulation in alignments,
+\item \csb{xintForpair}, \csb{xintForthree}, \csb{xintForfour} are experimental
+ variants of \csb{xintFor},
+\item \csb{xintApplyInline} has been enhanced in order to be usable for
+ generating rows (partially or completely) in an alignment,
+\item new command \csb{xintSeq} to generate (expandably) arithmetic sequences of
+ (short) integers,
+\item the factorial |!| and branching |?|, |:|, operators (in
+ \csb{xintexpr}|...\relax|) have now less precedence than a function name
+ located just before: |func(x)!| is the factorial of |func(x)|, not |func(x!)|,
+\item again various improvements and changes in the documentation.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\noindent Release |1.09b| (|[2013/10/03]|):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item various improvements in the documentation,
+\item more economical catcode management and re-loading handling,
+\item removal of all those |[0]|'s previously forcefully added at the end of
+ fractions by various macros of \xintcfracname,
+\item \csb{xintNthElt} with a negative index returns from the tail of the list,
+\item new macro \csb{xintPRaw} to have something like what |\xintFrac| does in
+ math
+ mode; i.e. a |\xintRaw| which does not print the denominator if it is one.
+\end{itemize}
+
+
+\noindent Release |1.09a| (|[2013/09/24]|):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item \csb{xintexpr}|..\relax| and
+ \csb{xintfloatexpr}|..\relax| admit functions in their
+ syntax, with comma separated values as arguments, among them \texttt{reduce,
+ sqr, sqrt, abs, sgn, floor, ceil, quo, rem, round, trunc, float, gcd, lcm,
+ max, min, sum, prd, add, mul, not, all, any, xor}.
+\item comparison (|<|, |>|, |=|) and logical (\verb$|$, |&|) operators.
+\item the command |\xintthe| which converts |\xintexpr|essions into printable
+ format (like |\the| with |\numexpr|) is more efficient, for example one can do
+ |\xintthe\x| if |\x| was def'ined to be an |\xintexpr..\relax|:
+\centeredline{|\def\x{\xintexpr 3^57\relax}\def\y{\xintexpr \x^(-2)\relax}|}
+\centeredline{|\def\z{\xintexpr
+ \y-3^-114\relax}|\hspace{1cm}|\xintthe\z=|\begingroup
+\def\x{\xintexpr 3^57\relax}\def\y{\xintexpr \x^(-2)\relax}%
+\def\z{\xintexpr \y-3^-114\relax}\digitstt{\xintthe\z}\endgroup}
+\item \csb{xintnumexpr}| .. \relax| is |\xintexpr round( .. ) \relax|.
+\item \csb{xintNewExpr} now works with the standard macro parameter character
+ |#|.
+\item both regular |\xintexpr|-essions and commands defined by |\xintNewExpr|
+ will work with comma separated lists of expressions,
+\item new commands \csb{xintFloor}, \csb{xintCeil}, \csb{xintMaxof},
+ \csb{xintMinof} (package \xintfracname), \csb{xintGCDof}, \csb{xintLCM},
+ \csb{xintLCMof} (package \xintgcdname), \csb{xintifLt}, \csb{xintifGt},
+ \csb{xintifSgn}, \csb{xintANDof}, ...
+\item The arithmetic macros from package \xintname now filter their operands via
+ \csb{xintNum} which means that they may use directly count registers and
+ |\numexpr|-essions without having to prefix them by |\the|. This is thus
+ similar to the situation holding previously but with \xintfracname loaded.
+\item a bug introduced in |1.08b| made \csb{xintCmp} crash when one of its
+ arguments was zero.
+\end{itemize}
+
+
+\noindent Release |1.08b| (|[2013/06/14]|):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Correction of a problem with spaces inside |\xintexpr|-essions.
+\item Additional improvements to the handling of floating point numbers.
+\item The macros of \xintfracname allow to use count registers in their
+ arguments in ways which were not previously documented. See
+ \hyperlink{useofcount}{Use of count registers}.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\noindent Release |1.08a| (|[2013/06/11]|):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Improved efficiency of the basic conversion from exact
+ fractions to floating point numbers,
+ with ensuing speed gains especially for the power function macros
+ \csb{xintFloatPow} and \csb{xintFloatPower},
+\item Better management by the \xintfracname macros \csb{xintCmp},
+ \csb{xintMax}, \csb{xintMin} and \csb{xintGeq} of inputs having big powers
+ of ten in them.
+\item Macros for floating point numbers added to the \xintseriesname package.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\noindent Release |1.08| (|[2013/06/07]|):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Extraction of square roots, for floating point numbers
+ (\csb{xintFloatSqrt}), and also in
+ a version adapted to integers (\csb{xintiSqrt}).
+\item New package \xintbinhexname providing \hyperref[sec:combinhex]{conversion
+ routines} to and from binary and hexadecimal bases.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\noindent Release |1.07| (|[2013/05/25)]|):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item The \xintfracname macros accept numbers written in scientific notation,
+ the \csb{xintFloat} command serves to output its argument with a given number
+ |D| of significant figures. The value of |D| is either given as optional
+ argument to \csb{xintFloat} or set with |\xintDigits := D;|. The default value
+ is |16|.
+\item The \xintexprname package is a new core constituent (which loads
+ automatically \xintfracname and \xintname) and implements the expandable
+ expanding parsers \centeredline{\csb{xintexpr}| . . . \relax|,
+ and its variant
+ \csb{xintfloatexpr}| . . . \relax|} allowing on input formulas using the
+ standard form with infix
+ operators |+|, |-|, |*|, |/|, and |^|, and arbitrary levels of
+ parenthesizing. Within a float expression the operations are executed
+ according to the current value of \csb{xintDigits}. Within an
+ |\xintexpr|-ession the binary operators are computed exactly.
+\end{itemize}
+
+% The |\xintexpr..\relax| and |\xintfloatexpr..\relax| are usable as
+% sub-expressions but not directly printable; for this one has |\xinttheexpr|
+% and
+% |\xintthefloatexpr|, or equivalently |\xintthe\xintexpr| and
+% |\xintthe\xintfloatexpr|.
+The floating point precision |D| is set (this is a
+local assignment to a |\mathchar| variable) with |\xintDigits := D;| and queried
+with |\xinttheDigits|. It may be set to anything up to |32767|.\footnote{but
+ values higher than 100 or 200 will presumably give too slow evaluations.} The
+macro incarnations of the binary operations admit an optional argument which
+will replace pointwise |D|; this argument may exceed the |32767| bound.
+
+To write the |\xintexpr| parser I benefited from the commented source of the
+\LaTeX3 parser; the |\xintexpr| parser has its own features and peculiarities.
+See \hyperref[sec:comexpr]{its documentation}.

+\section{Overview}
+
+The main characteristics are:
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item exact algebra on arbitrarily big numbers, integers as well as fractions,
+\item floating point variants with user-chosen precision,
+\item implemented via macros compatible with expansion-only
+ context.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+`Arbitrarily big': this means with less than
+ |2^31-1|\digitstt{=\number"7FFFFFFF} digits, as most of the macros will
+ have to compute the length of the inputs and these lengths must be treatable
+ as \TeX{} integers, which are at most \digitstt{\number "7FFFFFFF}
+ in absolute value.
+ This is a distant theoretical upper bound,
+the true limitation is from the \emph{time} taken by the
+expansion-compatible algorithms, this will be commented upon soon.
+
+As just recalled, ten-digits numbers starting with a &3& already exceed the
+\TeX{} bound on integers; and \TeX{} does not have a native processing of
+floating point numbers (multiplication by a decimal number of a dimension
+register is allowed --- this is used for example by the
+\href{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/pgf/base}{pgf} basic math
+engine.)
+
+\TeX{} elementary operations on numbers are done via the non-expandable
+\emph{advance, multiply, \emph{and} divide} assignments. This was changed with
+\eTeX{}'s |\numexpr| which does expandable computations using standard infix
+notations with \TeX{} integers. But \eTeX{} did not modify the \TeX{} bound on
+acceptable integers, and did not add floating point support.
+
+The \href{http://www.ctan.org/pkg/bigintcalc}{bigintcalc} package by
+\textsc{Heiko Oberdiek} provided expandable operations (using some of |\numexpr|
+possibilities, when available) on arbitrarily big integers, beyond the \TeX{}
+bound. The present package does this again, using more of |\numexpr| (\xintname
+requires the \eTeX{} extensions) for higher speed, and also on fractions, not
+only integers. Arbitrary precision floating points operations are a derivative,
+and not the initial design goal.\footnote{currently (|v1.08|), the only
+ non-elementary operation implemented for floating point numbers is the
+ square-root extraction; furthermore no |NaN|'s nor error traps has been
+ implemented, only the notion of `scientific notation with a given number of
+ significant figures'.}${}^{\text{,\,}}$\footnote{multiplication of two floats
+ with |P=\string\xinttheDigits| digits is first done exactly then rounded to
+ |P| digits, rather than using a specially tailored multiplication for floating
+ point numbers which would be more efficient (it is a waste to evaluate fully
+ the multiplication result with |2P| or |2P-1| digits.)}
+
+The \LaTeX3 project has implemented
+expandably floating-point computations with 16 significant figures
+(\href{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/l3kernel}{l3fp}),
+including special functions such as exp, log, sine and cosine.
+
+The \xintname package can be used for 24, 40, etc... significant figures but one
+rather quickly (not much beyond 100 figures perhaps) hits against a `wall'
+created by the constraint of expandability: currently, multiplying out two
+one-hundred digits numbers takes circa 80 or 90 times longer than for two
+ten-digits numbers, which is reasonable, but multiplying out two one-thousand
+digits numbers takes more than 500 times longer than for two one hundred-digits
+numbers. This shows that the algorithm is drifting from quadratic to cubic in
+that range. On my laptop multiplication of two 1000-digits numbers takes some
+seconds, so it can not be done routinely in a document.\footnote{without
+ entering
+ into too much technical details, the
+ source of this `wall' is that when dealing with two long operands, when one
+ wants to pick some digits from the second one, one has to jump above all
+ digits constituting the first one, which can not be stored away: expandability
+ forbids assignments to memory storage. One may envision some sophisticated
+ schemes, dealing with this problem in less naive ways, trying to move big
+ chunks of data higher up in the input stream and come back to it later,
+ etc...; but each `better' algorithm adds overhead for the smaller inputs. For
+ example, I have another version of addition which is twice faster on inputs
+ with 500 digits or more, but it is slightly less efficient for 50 digits or
+ less. This `wall' dissuaded me to look into implementing `intelligent'
+ multiplication which would be sub-quadratic in a model where storing and
+ retrieving from memory do not cost much.}
+
+The conclusion perhaps could be that it is in the end lucky that the speed gains
+brought by \xintname for expandable operations on big numbers do open some
+non-empty range of applicability in terms of the number of kept digits for
+routine floating point operations.
+
+The second conclusion, somewhat depressing after all the hard work, is
+that if one really wants to do computations with \emph{hundreds} of digits, one
+should drop the expandability requirement. And indeed, as clearly
+demonstrated long ago by the \href{http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pi}{pi
+ computing file} by \textsc{D. Roegel} one can program \TeX{} to
+compute with many digits at a much higher speed than what \xintname
+achieves: but, direct access to memory storage in one form or another
+seems a necessity for this kind of speed and one has to renounce at the
+complete expandability.\footnote{I could, naturally, be proven
+ wrong!}\,\footnote{The Lua\TeX{} project possibly makes endeavours
+ such as \xintname appear even more insane that they are, in truth.}
+
+
+\section{Missing things}
+
+
+`Arbitrary-precision' floating-point
+operations are currently limited to the basic four operations, the power
+function with integer exponent, and the extraction of square-roots.

-\section{Summary of the \csh{xintexpr} syntax}\label{sec:exprsummary}
+\section{The \csh{xintexpr} math parser (II)}
+\label{sec:exprsummaryII}
An expression is built with infix operators (including comparison and boolean
operators) and parentheses, and functions. And there are two special branching
constructs. The parser expands everything from the left to the right and
-everything may thus be revealed step by step by expansion of macros (the
-branches of the |?| and |:| conditional operators are an exception, they act as
-arguments to a macro, and can thus not be obtained by expansion first). Spaces
+everything may thus be revealed step by step by expansion of macros. Spaces
anywhere are allowed.
Note that |2^-10| is perfectly accepted input, no need for parentheses. And
|-2^-10^-5*3| does |(-((2^(-10))^(-5)))*3|.
-The characters used in the syntax should not
-of course have been made active. Use \csb{xintexprSafeCatcodes},
-\csb{xintexprRestoreCatcodes} if need be (of course, this can not be done
-expandably... ). Apart from that infix operators may be of catcode letter or
-other, it does not matter, or even of catcode tabulation, math superscript, or
-math subscript. This should cause no problem. As an alternative to
-|\xintexprSafeCatcodes| one may also use |\string| inside the expression.

-\section{Recent changes}
-
-\footnotesize
-
-\noindent Release |1.09c| (|[2013/10/09]|):
-\begin{itemize}
-\item added \hyperlink{item:bool}{|bool|} and \hyperlink{item:bool}{|togl|} to
- the
- \csb{xintexpr} syntax; also added \csb{xintboolexpr} and \csb{xintifboolexpr}.
-\item added \csb{xintNewNumExpr} and \csb{xintNewBoolExpr},
-\item \csb{xintFor} is a new type of loop, whose replacement text inserts the
- comma separated values or list items via macro parameters, rather than
- encapsulated in macros; the loops are nestable up to four levels,
- and their replacement texts are allowed to close groups as happens with the
- tabulation in alignments,
-\item \csb{xintForpair}, \csb{xintForthree}, \csb{xintForfour} are experimental
- variants of \csb{xintFor},
-\item \csb{xintApplyInline} has been enhanced in order to be usable for
- generating rows (partially or completely) in an alignment,
-\item new command \csb{xintSeq} to generate (expandably) arithmetic sequences of
- (short) integers,
-\item the factorial |!| and branching |?|, |:|, operators (in
- \csb{xintexpr}|...\relax|) have now less precedence than a function name
- located just before: |func(x)!| is the factorial of |func(x)|, not |func(x!)|,
-\item again various improvements and changes in the documentation.
-\end{itemize}
-
-\noindent Release |1.09b| (|[2013/10/03]|):
-\begin{itemize}
-\item various improvements in the documentation,
-\item more economical catcode management and re-loading handling,
-\item removal of all those |[0]|'s previously forcefully added at the end of
- fractions by various macros of \xintcfracname,
-\item \csb{xintNthElt} with a negative index returns from the tail of the list,
-\item new macro \csb{xintPRaw} to have something like what |\xintFrac| does in
- math
- mode; i.e. a |\xintRaw| which does not print the denominator if it is one.
-\end{itemize}
-
-
-\noindent Release |1.09a| (|[2013/09/24]|):
-\begin{itemize}
-\item \csb{xintexpr}|..\relax| and
- \csb{xintfloatexpr}|..\relax| admit functions in their
- syntax, with comma separated values as arguments, among them \texttt{reduce,
- sqr, sqrt, abs, sgn, floor, ceil, quo, rem, round, trunc, float, gcd, lcm,
- max, min, sum, prd, add, mul, not, all, any, xor}.
-\item comparison (|<|, |>|, |=|) and logical (\verb$|$, |&|) operators.
-\item the command |\xintthe| which converts |\xintexpr|essions into printable
- format (like |\the| with |\numexpr|) is more efficient, for example one can do
- |\xintthe\x| if |\x| was def'ined to be an |\xintexpr..\relax|:
-\centeredline{|\def\x{\xintexpr 3^57\relax}\def\y{\xintexpr \x^(-2)\relax}|}
-\centeredline{|\def\z{\xintexpr

-\def\x{\xintexpr 3^57\relax}\def\y{\xintexpr \x^(-2)\relax}%
-\def\z{\xintexpr \y-3^-114\relax}\digitstt{\xintthe\z}\endgroup}
-\item \csb{xintnumexpr}| .. \relax| is |\xintexpr round( .. ) \relax|.
-\item \csb{xintNewExpr} now works with the standard macro parameter character
- |#|.
-\item both regular |\xintexpr|-essions and commands defined by |\xintNewExpr|
- will work with comma separated lists of expressions,
-\item new commands \csb{xintFloor}, \csb{xintCeil}, \csb{xintMaxof},
- \csb{xintMinof} (package \xintfracname), \csb{xintGCDof}, \csb{xintLCM},
- \csb{xintLCMof} (package \xintgcdname), \csb{xintifLt}, \csb{xintifGt},
- \csb{xintifSgn}, \csb{xintANDof}, ...
-\item The arithmetic macros from package \xintname now filter their operands via
- \csb{xintNum} which means that they may use directly count registers and
- |\numexpr|-essions without having to prefix them by |\the|. This is thus
- similar to the situation holding previously but with \xintfracname loaded.
-\item a bug introduced in |1.08b| made \csb{xintCmp} crash when one of its
- arguments was zero.
-\end{itemize}
-
-
-\noindent Release |1.08b| (|[2013/06/14]|):
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Correction of a problem with spaces inside |\xintexpr|-essions.
-\item Additional improvements to the handling of floating point numbers.
-\item The macros of \xintfracname allow to use count registers in their
- arguments in ways which were not previously documented. See
- \hyperlink{useofcount}{Use of count registers}.
-\end{itemize}
-
-\noindent Release |1.08a| (|[2013/06/11]|):
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Improved efficiency of the basic conversion from exact
- fractions to floating point numbers,
- with ensuing speed gains especially for the power function macros
- \csb{xintFloatPow} and \csb{xintFloatPower},
-\item Better management by the \xintfracname macros \csb{xintCmp},

- of ten in them.

- |D| of significant figures. The value of |D| is either given as optional
- argument to \csb{xintFloat} or set with |\xintDigits := D;|. The default value
- is |16|.

- expanding parsers \centeredline{\csb{xintexpr}| . . . \relax|,
- and its variant
- \csb{xintfloatexpr}| . . . \relax|} allowing on input formulas using the
- standard form with infix
- operators |+|, |-|, |*|, |/|, and |^|, and arbitrary levels of
- parenthesizing. Within a float expression the operations are executed
- according to the current value of \csb{xintDigits}. Within an
- |\xintexpr|-ession the binary operators are computed exactly.
-\end{itemize}

-% The |\xintexpr..\relax| and |\xintfloatexpr..\relax| are usable as
-% sub-expressions but not directly printable; for this one has |\xinttheexpr|
-% and
-% |\xintthefloatexpr|, or equivalently |\xintthe\xintexpr| and
-% |\xintthe\xintfloatexpr|.
-The floating point precision |D| is set (this is a
-local assignment to a |\mathchar| variable) with |\xintDigits := D;| and queried
-with |\xinttheDigits|. It may be set to anything up to |32767|.\footnote{but
- values higher than 100 or 200 will presumably give too slow evaluations.} The
-macro incarnations of the binary operations admit an optional argument which
-will replace pointwise |D|; this argument may exceed the |32767| bound.

-To write the |\xintexpr| parser I benefited from the commented source of the
-\LaTeX3 parser; the |\xintexpr| parser has its own features and peculiarities.

-\section{Overview}
-
-The main characteristics are:
-\begin{enumerate}
-\item exact algebra on arbitrarily big numbers, integers as well as fractions,
-\item floating point variants with user-chosen precision,
-\item implemented via macros compatible with expansion-only
- context.
-\end{enumerate}
-
-`Arbitrarily big': this means with less than
- |2^31-1|\digitstt{=\number"7FFFFFFF} digits, as most of the macros will
- have to compute the length of the inputs and these lengths must be treatable
- as \TeX{} integers, which are at most \digitstt{\number "7FFFFFFF}
- in absolute value.
- This is a distant theoretical upper bound,
-the true limitation is from the \emph{time} taken by the
-expansion-compatible algorithms, this will be commented upon soon.
-
-As just recalled, ten-digits numbers starting with a &3& already exceed the
-\TeX{} bound on integers; and \TeX{} does not have a native processing of
-floating point numbers (multiplication by a decimal number of a dimension
-register is allowed --- this is used for example by the
-\href{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/pgf/base}{pgf} basic math
-engine.)
-
-\TeX{} elementary operations on numbers are done via the non-expandable
-\emph{advance, multiply, \emph{and} divide} assignments. This was changed with
-\eTeX{}'s |\numexpr| which does expandable computations using standard infix
-notations with \TeX{} integers. But \eTeX{} did not modify the \TeX{} bound on
-acceptable integers, and did not add floating point support.
-
-The \href{http://www.ctan.org/pkg/bigintcalc}{bigintcalc} package by
-\textsc{Heiko Oberdiek} provided expandable operations (using some of |\numexpr|
-possibilities, when available) on arbitrarily big integers, beyond the \TeX{}
-bound. The present package does this again, using more of |\numexpr| (\xintname
-requires the \eTeX{} extensions) for higher speed, and also on fractions, not
-only integers. Arbitrary precision floating points operations are a derivative,
-and not the initial design goal.\footnote{currently (|v1.08|), the only
- non-elementary operation implemented for floating point numbers is the
- square-root extraction; furthermore no |NaN|'s nor error traps has been
- implemented, only the notion of `scientific notation with a given number of
- significant figures'.}${}^{\text{,\,}}$\footnote{multiplication of two floats
- with |P=\string\xinttheDigits| digits is first done exactly then rounded to
- |P| digits, rather than using a specially tailored multiplication for floating
- point numbers which would be more efficient (it is a waste to evaluate fully
- the multiplication result with |2P| or |2P-1| digits.)}
-
-The \LaTeX3 project has implemented
-expandably floating-point computations with 16 significant figures
-(\href{http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/l3kernel}{l3fp}),
-including special functions such as exp, log, sine and cosine.
-
-The \xintname package can be used for 24, 40, etc... significant figures but one
-rather quickly (not much beyond 100 figures perhaps) hits against a `wall'
-created by the constraint of expandability: currently, multiplying out two
-one-hundred digits numbers takes circa 80 or 90 times longer than for two
-ten-digits numbers, which is reasonable, but multiplying out two one-thousand
-digits numbers takes more than 500 times longer than for two one hundred-digits
-numbers. This shows that the algorithm is drifting from quadratic to cubic in
-that range. On my laptop multiplication of two 1000-digits numbers takes some
-seconds, so it can not be done routinely in a document.\footnote{without
- entering
- into too much technical details, the
- source of this `wall' is that when dealing with two long operands, when one
- wants to pick some digits from the second one, one has to jump above all
- digits constituting the first one, which can not be stored away: expandability
- forbids assignments to memory storage. One may envision some sophisticated
- schemes, dealing with this problem in less naive ways, trying to move big
- chunks of data higher up in the input stream and come back to it later,
- etc...; but each `better' algorithm adds overhead for the smaller inputs. For
- example, I have another version of addition which is twice faster on inputs
- with 500 digits or more, but it is slightly less efficient for 50 digits or
- less. This `wall' dissuaded me to look into implementing `intelligent'
- multiplication which would be sub-quadratic in a model where storing and
- retrieving from memory do not cost much.}
-
-The conclusion perhaps could be that it is in the end lucky that the speed gains
-brought by \xintname for expandable operations on big numbers do open some
-non-empty range of applicability in terms of the number of kept digits for
-routine floating point operations.
-
-The second conclusion, somewhat depressing after all the hard work, is
-that if one really wants to do computations with \emph{hundreds} of digits, one
-should drop the expandability requirement. And indeed, as clearly
-demonstrated long ago by the \href{http://www.ctan.org/pkg/pi}{pi
- computing file} by \textsc{D. Roegel} one can program \TeX{} to
-compute with many digits at a much higher speed than what \xintname
-achieves: but, direct access to memory storage in one form or another
-seems a necessity for this kind of speed and one has to renounce at the
-complete expandability.\footnote{I could, naturally, be proven
- wrong!}\,\footnote{The Lua\TeX{} project possibly makes endeavours
- such as \xintname appear even more insane that they are, in truth.}

-\section{Missing things}
