-The title page illustrates that \xintname is dedicated to do computations on
-numbers exceeding the \TeX{} limit of \digitstt{\number"7FFFFFFF} (already
-@9876543210@ and @F(47)@\digitstt{=\Fibonacci {47}} for example are too big for
-\TeX{} and \eTeX{}), in an \emph{expandable} way, hence the package macros can
-be used inside an |\edef| or |\write| for example, as here within |\message|.
-
-What is more important is that they can be nested one within the other, because
-(1.)~each one completely expands under the sole process of repeated expansion of
-the first token (two expansions suffice), and (2.)~the package macros (dealing
-with computations) apply this \fexpan sion to each of their arguments. The
-|\Fibonacci| macro from this document front page is \fexpan dable (although not
-in only two steps but this does not matter), thus if we are interested in
-knowing how many digits @F(1250)@ has, suffices to use |\xintLen {\Fibonacci
- {1250}}| (which expands to \digitstt{\xintLen {\Fibonacci {1250}}}), or if we
-want to check the formula @gcd(F(1859),F(1573))=F(gcd(1859,1573))=F(143)@, we
-only need\footnote{The \csa{xintGCD} macro is provided by the \xintgcdname
- package.}
-\centeredline{|\xintGCD{\Fibonacci{1859}}{\Fibonacci{1573}}=\Fibonacci{\xintGCD{1859}{1573}}|}
-\centeredline{\digitstt{\printnumber{\xintGCD{\Fibonacci{1859}}{\Fibonacci{1573}}}=\printnumber{\Fibonacci{\xintGCD{1859}{1573}}}}}
-
-The |\Fibonacci| macro expanded its
-|\xintGCD{}{}| argument via the services of |\numexpr|: this step requires
-something obeying the \TeX{} bound, naturally! (but
-\digitstt{F(\xintiiPow2{31}}) would be rather big anyhow...). \`A propos, the
-\eTeX{} extensions must be enabled for \xintname, this is the case by default
-except if you invoke \TeX{} under the name |tex| in command line (|etex| should
-be used then, or |pdftex| in |DVI| output mode).
-
-Computations with @100@ or @200@ digits are still reasonably fast, but
-the situation then deteriorates swiftly, it takes of the order of
-seconds for the package to multiply exactly two numbers each of @1000@
-digits and it would take hours for numbers each of @20000@ digits.
-Perhaps some faster routines could emerge from an approach which, while
-maintaining expandability would renounce at \fexpan dability (without
-impacting the input save stack). There is one such routine
-\csbxint{XTrunc} which is able to write to a file (or inside an |\edef|)
-tens of thousands of digits of a (reasonably-sized) fraction.
-
-There is also the possibility to use ``Float'' routines, although no attempt has
-been made to implement float-standards such as |NaN|s, apart from certifying
-exact rounding for the basic operations (the only non-algebraic operation
-currently implemented is square root extraction). I doubt one could do the
-following on a pocket calculator:\smallskip
-\centeredline{$(1.1547)^{2^{35}}=(1.1547)^{\xintiiPow {2}{35}}\approx\hbox
- \bgroup|\xintFloatPower [48] {1.1547}{\xintiiPow {2}{35}}|}$}
-\centeredline{\digitstt{=\np{\xintFloatPower [48] {1.1547}{\xintiiPow
- {2}{35}}}}}
-%
-Notice that @2^35@ exceeds \TeX's bound, but \csa{xintFloatPower} allows it,
-what counts is the exponent of the result which, while dangerously close to
-@2^31@ is not quite there yet. The printing of the result was done via the
-|\numprint| command from the \href{http://ctan.org/pkg/numprint}{numprint}
-package\footnote{\url{http://ctan.org/pkg/numprint}}.
-
-\footnotesize
-When producing very long numbers there is the question of printing them on

+\subsection{Presentation of the package}
+
+The components of the \xintname bundle provide macros dedicated to
+\emph{expandable} computations on numbers exceeding the \TeX{} (and \eTeX{})
+limit of \digitstt{\number"7FFFFFFF}.
+
+The \eTeX{} extensions must be enabled; this is the case in modern
+distributions by default, except if \TeX{} is invoked under the name
+|tex| in command line (|etex| should be used then, or |pdftex| in |DVI|
+output mode). All components may be used as regular \LaTeX{} packages
+or, with any other format based on \TeX{}, loaded directly via
+\string\input{} (e.g. |\input
+xint.sty\relax|).
+%
+% {\makeatother\footnote{\csa{empty}, \csa{space}, \csa{z@},
+% \csa{@ne}, and \csa{m@ne} should have the same meaning as in Plain and
+% \LaTeX.}}
+%
+Each package automatically loads those not already loaded
+it depends on.
The \xintname bundle consists of the three principal components \xintname,
\xintfracname (which loads \xintname), and \xintexprname (which loads
-\xintfracname), and four additional modules. Release |1.09g| has moved the
-macros of \xintname not dealing with the manipulation of big numbers to a
-separate package \xinttoolsname (which is automatically loaded by \xintname), of
-independent interest.
-
-All components may be used as regular packages with \LaTeX{} or loaded directly
-via \string\input{} (e.g. |\input xint.sty\relax|) in any other format based on
-\TeX. Each of them automatically loads those not already loaded it depends
-on.
-
-The \eTeX{} extensions must be enabled; this is the case in modern distributions
-by default, except if you invoke \TeX{} under the name |tex| in command line
-(|etex| should be used then, or |pdftex| in |DVI| output mode).
-
-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 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 (expandable!) \csbxint{expr}| ...
-\relax| parser as it allows infix notations, function names
-(corresponding to some of the package macros), comparison operators,
-boolean operators, 2way and 3way conditionals, unpacking of count and dimen
-registers or variables...

+\xintfracname), and four additional modules. The macros of the \xintname bundle
+not dealing directly with the manipulation of big numbers belong to a package
+\xinttoolsname (automatically loaded by all others), which is of independent
+interest.
+
+\subsection{User interface}
+
+The user interface for executing operations on numbers is via macros such as
+\csbxint{Add} or \csbxint{Mul} which have two arguments, or via expressions
+\csbxint{expr}|..\relax| which use infix notations such as |+|, |-|, |*|, |/|,
+and |^| for the basic operations, and recognize functions of one or more comma
+separated arguments (such as |max|, or |round|, or |sqrt|), parentheses, logic
+operators of conjunction |&|, disjunction \verb+|+, as well as two-way |?| and
+three-way |:| conditionals and more.
+
+In the latter case the contents are expanded completely from left to right until
+the ending |\relax| is found and swallowed, and spaces and even (to some extent)
+catcodes do not matter. In the former (macro) case the arguments are each
+subjected to the process of \fexpan sion: repeated expansion of the first token
+until finding something unexpandable (or being stopped by a space token).
+
+Conversely this process of \fexpan sion always provokes the complete expansion
+of the package macros and \csbxint{expr}|..\relax| also will expand completely
+under \fexpan sion, but to a private format; the \csbxint{the} prefix allows the
+computation result either to be passed as argument to one of the package
+macros,\footnote{the \csa{xintthe} prefix \fexpan ds the \csa{xintexpr}-ession
+ then unlocks it from its private format; it should not be used for
+ sub-expressions inside a bigger one as its is more efficient for the
+ expression parser to keep the result in the private format.} or also end up on
+the printed page (or in an auxiliary file).
+
+To recapitulate: all macros dealing with computations (1.)~\emph{expand
+ completely under the sole process of repeated expansion of the first token,
+ (and two expansions suffice)},\footnote{see in \autoref{sec:expansions} for
+ more details.} (2.)~\emph{apply this \fexpan sion to each one of their
+ arguments.} Hence they can be nested one within the other up to arbitrary
+depths. Conditional evaluations either within the macro arguments themselves, or
+with branches defined in terms of these macros are made possible via macros such
+as as \csbxint{ifSgn} or \csbxint{ifCmp}.
+
+There is no notion of \emph{declaration of a variable} to \xintname,
+\xintfracname, or \xintexprname. The user employs the |\def|, |\edef|, or
+|\newcommand| (in \LaTeX) as usual, for example:
+%
+\centeredline{|\def\x{17} \def\y{35} \edef\z{\xintMul {\x}{\y}}|}
+%
+As a faster alternative to |\edef| (when hundreds of digits are involved), the
+package provides |\oodef| which only expands twice its argument.
-The utilities provided by \xinttoolsname (\autoref{sec:tools}), some
-completely expandable, others not, are of independent interest. Their
-use is illustrated through various examples: among those, it is shown in
-\autoref{ssec:quicksort} how to implement in a completely expandable way
-the \hyperref[quicksort]{Quick Sort algorithm} and also how to
-illustrate it graphically. Other examples include some dynamically
-constructed alignments with automatically computed prime number cells:
-one using a completely expandable prime test and \csbxint{ApplyUnbraced}
-(\autoref{ssec:primesI}), another one with \csbxint{For*}
-(\autoref{ssec:primesIII}).
+The \xintexprname package has a private internal
+representation for the evaluated computation result. With
+%
+\centeredline{|\oodef\z {\xintexpr 3.141^17\relax}|}
+%
+the macro |\z| is already fully evaluated (two expansions were applied, and this
+is enough), and can be reused in other |\xintexpr|-essions, such as for example
+%
+\centeredline{|\xintexpr \z+1/\z\relax|}
+%
+But to print it, or to use it as argument to one of the package macros,
+it must be prefixed by |\xintthe| (a synonym for |\xintthe\xintexpr| is
+\csbxint{theexpr}). Application of this |\xintthe| prefix outputs the
+value in the \xintfracname semi-private internal format
+|A/B[N]|,\footnote{there is also the notion of \csbxint{floatexpr}, for
+ which the output format after the action of \csa{xintthe} is a number in
+ floating point scientific notation.} representing the fraction
+$(A/B)\times 10^N$. The example above produces a somewhat large output:
+\digitstt{\oodef\z {\xintexpr 3.141^17\relax}%
+ \printnumber {\xinttheexpr \z+1/\z\relax }}
-One has also a \hyperref[edefprimes]{computation of primes
- within an \csa{edef}} (\autoref{xintiloop}), with the help of
-\csbxint{iloop}. Also with \csbxint{iloop} an
-\hyperref[ssec:factorizationtable]{automatically generated table of
- factorizations} (\autoref{ssec:factorizationtable}).
+ \begin{framed}
+ By default, computations done by the macros of \xintfracname or within
+ |\xintexpr..\relax| are exact. Inputs containing decimal points or
+ scientific parts do not make the package switch to a `floating-point' mode.
+ The inputs, however long, are converted into exact internal representations.
+%
+ % Floating point evaluations are done via special macros containing
+ % `Float' in their names, or inside |\xintfloatexpr|-essions.
+ \end{framed}
-The title page fun with Fibonacci numbers is continued in
-\autoref{ssec:fibonacci} with \csbxint{For*} joining the game,.
+%
+The |A/B[N]| shape is the output format of most \xintfracname macros, it
+benefits from accelerated parsing when used on input, compared to the normal
+user syntax which has no |[N]| part. An example of valid user input for a
+fraction is
+%
+\centeredline{|-123.45602e78/+765.987e-123|}
+%
+where both the decimal parts, the scientific exponent parts, and the whole
+denominator are optional components. The corresponding semi-private form in this
+case would be
+%
+\centeredline{\digitstt{\xintRaw{-123.45602e78/+765.987e-123}}}
+%
+The optional forward slash |/| introducing a denominator is not an operation,
+but a denomination for a fractional input. Reduction to the irreducible form
+must be asked for explicitely via the \csbxint{Irr} macro or the |reduce|
+function within |\xintexpr..\relax|. Elementary operations on fractions work
+blindly (addition does not even check for equality of the denominators and
+multiply them automatically) and do none of the simplifications which
+could be obvious to (some) human beings.
+
+
+\subsection{Space and time, floating point macros}
+
+The size of the manipulated numbers is limited by two
+factors:\footnote{there is an intrinsic limit of
+ \digitstt{\number"7FFFFFFF} on the number of digits, but it is
+ irrelevant, in view of the other limiting factors.} (1.)~\emph{the
+ available memory as configured in the |tex| executable},
+(2.)~\emph{the \emph{time} necessary to fully expand the computations
+ themselves}. The most limiting factor is the second one, the time
+needed (for multiplication and division, and even more for powers)
+explodes with increasing input sizes long before the computations could
+get limited by constraints on \TeX's available memory:
+computations with @100@ digits are still reasonably fast, but the
+situation then deteriorates swiftly, as it takes of the order of seconds (on my
+laptop) for the package to multiply exactly two numbers each of @1000@ digits
+and it would take hours for numbers each of @20000@ digits.\footnote{Perhaps
+ some faster routines could emerge from an approach which, while maintaining
+ expandability would renounce at \fexpan dability (without impacting the input
+ save stack). There is one such routine \csbxint{XTrunc} which is able to write
+ to a file (or inside an \csa{edef}) tens of thousands of digits of a
+ (reasonably-sized) fraction.}
+
+To address this issue, floating
+point macros are provided to work with a given arbitrary precision. The default
+size for significands is @16@ digits. Working with significands of @24@, @32@,
+@48@, @64@, or even @80@ digits is well within the reach of the package. But
+routine multiplications and divisions will become too slow if the precision goes
+into the hundreds, although the syntax to set it (|\xintDigits:=P;|) allows
+values up to @32767@.\footnote{for a one-shot conversion of a fraction to float
+ format, or one addition, a precision exceeding \digitstt{32767} may be passed
+ as optional argument to the used macro.} The exponents may be as big as
+\digitstt{$\pm$\number"7FFFFFFF}.\footnote{almost\dots{} as inner manipulations
+ may either add or subtract the precision value to the exponent, arithmetic
+ overflow may occur if the exponents are a bit to close to the \TeX{} bound
+ \digitstt{$\pm$\number"7FFFFFFF}.}
+
+Here is such a floating point computation: \centeredline{|\xintFloatPower [48]
+ {1.1547}{\xintiiPow {2}{35}}|} which thus computes
+$(1.1547)^{2^{35}}=(1.1547)^{\xintiiPow {2}{35}}$ to be approximately
+\centeredline{\digitstt{\np{\xintFloatPower [48] {1.1547}{\xintiiPow
+ {2}{35}}}}}
+%
+Notice that @2^35@ exceeds \TeX's bound, but \csa{xintFloatPower} allows it,
+what counts is the exponent of the result which, while dangerously close to
+@2^31@ is not quite there yet. The printing of the result was done via the
+|\numprint| command from the \href{http://ctan.org/pkg/numprint}{numprint}
+package\footnote{\url{http://ctan.org/pkg/numprint}}.
-The computations of \hyperref[ssec:Machin]{ $\pi$ and $\log 2$}
-(\autoref{ssec:Machin}) using \xintname and the computation of the
-\hyperlink{e-convergents}{convergents of $e$} with the further help of
-the \xintcfracname package are among further examples.
+The same computation can be done via the non-expandable assignment
+|\xintDigits:=48;| and then \centeredline{|\xintthefloatexpr
+ 1.1547^(2^35)\relax|} Notice though that |2^35| will be evaluated as a
+floating point number, and if the floating point precision had been too
+low, this computation would have given an inexact value. It is safer,
+and also more efficient to code this as:
+%
+\centeredline{|\xintthefloatexpr 1.1547^\xintiiexpr 2^35\relax\relax|}
+%
+The |\xintiiexpr| is a cousin of |\xintexpr| which is big integer-only and skips
+the overhead of fraction management. Notice on this example that being
+embedded inside the |floatexpr|-ession has nil influence on the
+|iiexpr|-ession: expansion proceeds in exactly the same way as if it had
+been at the `top' level.
+
+
+\xintexprname provides \emph{no} implementation of the |IEEE| standard:
+no |NaN|s, signed infinities, signed zeroes, error traps, \dots; what is
+achieved though is exact rounding for the basic operations. The only
+non-algebraic operation currently implemented is square root extraction.
+The power functions (there are three of them: \csbxint{Pow} to which |^|
+is mapped in |\xintexpr..\relax|, \csbxint{FloatPower} for |^| in
+|\xintfloatexpr..relax|, and \csbxint{FloatPow} which is slighty faster
+but limits the exponent to the \TeX{} bound) allow only integral
+exponents.
+
+
+\subsection{Printing big numbers on the page}
+
+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 macros (not provided by the package:)
+
+%
+\begingroup\baselineskip11pt\def\MacroFont{\small\ttfamily\baselineskip11pt\relax }%
+\dverb|@
+\def\allowsplits #1{\ifx #1\relax \else #1\hskip 0pt plus 1pt\relax
+ \expandafter\allowsplits\fi}%
+\def\printnumber #1{\expandafter\allowsplits \romannumeral-`0#1\relax }%
+% \printnumber thus first ``fully'' expands its argument.|
+\par\endgroup
+%
+An alternative (\autoref{fn:np}) is to suitably configure the thousand separator
+with the \href{http://ctan.org/pkg/numprint}{numprint} package (does not work in
+math mode; I also tried \href{http://ctan.org/pkg/siunitx}{siunitx} but even in
+text mode could not get it to break numbers accross lines). Recently I became
+aware of the
+\href{http://ctan.org/pkg/seqsplit}{seqsplit}
+package\footnote{\url{http://ctan.org/pkg/seqsplit}}
+which can be used to achieve this splitting accross lines, and does work
+in inline math mode.\par
+
+\subsection{Expandable implementations of mathematical algorithms}
+
+Another use of the |\xintexpr|-essions is illustrated with the algorithm on the
+title page: it shows how one may chain expandable evaluations, almost as if one
+were using the |\numexpr| facilities.\footnote{The implementation uses the
+ (already once-expanded) integer only variant \csa{xintiiexpr} as \csa{romannumeral0}\csa{xintiieval..}\csa{relax}.}
+Notice that the @47@th Fibonacci number is \digitstt{\Fibonacci {47}} thus
+already too big for \TeX{} and \eTeX{}, a difficulty which our front page showed
+how to overcome (see \autoref{ssec:fibonacci} for more). The |\Fibonacci| macro
+is completely expandable hence can be used for example within |\message| to
+write to the log and terminal.
+
+It is even \fexpan dable (although not in only two steps, this could be added
+but does not matter here), thus if we are interested in knowing how many digits
+@F(1250)@ has, suffices to use |\xintLen {\Fibonacci {1250}}| (which expands to
+\digitstt{\xintLen {\Fibonacci {1250}}}), or if we want to check the formula
+@gcd(F(1859),F(1573))=F(gcd(1859,1573))=F(143)@, we only need\footnote{The
+ \csa{xintGCD} macro is provided by the \xintgcdname package.}
+\centeredline{|\xintGCD{\Fibonacci{1859}}{\Fibonacci{1573}}=\Fibonacci{\xintGCD{1859}{1573}}|}
+\centeredline{\digitstt{\printnumber{\xintGCD{\Fibonacci{1859}}{\Fibonacci{1573}}}=\printnumber{\Fibonacci{\xintGCD{1859}{1573}}}}}
+
+The |\Fibonacci| macro expanded its |\xintGCD{1859}{1573}| argument via the
+services of |\numexpr|: this step allows only things obeying the \TeX{} bound,
+naturally! (but \digitstt{F(\xintiiPow2{31}}) would be rather big anyhow...).
-There is also an example of an \hyperref[xintXTrunc]{interactive
- session}, where results are output to the log or to a file.

-\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 irrelevant upper bound, as no such thing can fit
- in \TeX's memory! And besides,
-the true limitation is from the \emph{time} taken by the
-expansion-compatible algorithms, as 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{General 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 irrelevant upper bound, as no such thing can fit
+ in \TeX's memory! And besides,
+the true limitation is from the \emph{time} taken by the
+expansion-compatible algorithms, as 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://mirror.ctan.org/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; no signed infinities, signed zeroes, |NaN|'s, error
+ trapes\dots, have 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/pkg/l3kernel}{l3fp}), including
+special functions such as exp, log, sine and cosine.\footnote{at the time of
+ writing the \href{http://www.ctan.org/pkg/l3kernel}{l3fp}
+ (exactly represented) floating point numbers have their exponents limited to
+ $\pm$\digitstt{9999}.}
+
+The \xintname package can be used for @24@, @40@, etc\dots{} significant figures
+but one rather quickly (not much beyond @100@ figures) 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.}

-The core bundle constituents are \xintname, \xintfracname, \xintexprname, each
-one loading its predecessor. The base constituent \xintname only handles (big)
-integers, and \xintfracname additionally manages decimal numbers, numbers in
-scientific notation, and fractions. Both load \xinttoolsname which provides
-utilities not directly related to big numbers.
+\section{User interface}
+
+Maintaining complete expandability is not for the faint of heart as it excludes
+doing macro definitions in the midst of the computation; in many cases, one does
+not need complete expandability, and definitions are allowed. In such contexts,
+there is no declaration for the user to be made to the package of a ``typed
+variable'' such as a long integer, or a (long) fraction, or possibly an
+|\xintexpr|-ession. Rather, the user has at its disposals the general tools of
+the \TeX{} language: |\def| or (in \LaTeX) |\newcommand|, and |\edef|.
+
+The \xinttoolsname package provides |\oodef| which expands twice the replacement
+text, hence forces complete expansion when the top level of this replacement
+text is a call to one of the \xintname bundle macros, its arguments being
+themselves chains of such macros. There is also |\fdef| which will apply \fexpan
+sion to the replacement text. Both are in such uses faster alternatives to
+|\edef|.
+
+This section will explain the various inputs which are recognized by the package
+macros and the format for their outputs. Inputs have mainly five possible
+shapes:
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item expressions which will end up inside a |\numexpr..\relax|,
+\item long integers in the strict format (no |+|, no leading zeroes, a count
+ register or variable must be prefixed by |\the| or |\number|)
+\item long integers in the general format allowing both |-| and |+| signs, then
+ leading zeroes, and a count register or variable without prefix is allowed,
+\item fractions with numerators and denominators as in the
+ previous item, or also decimal numbers, possibly in scientific notation (with
+ a lowercase |e|), and
+ also optionally the semi-private |A/B[N]| format,
+\item and finally expandable material understood by the |\xintexpr| parser.
+\end{enumerate}
+Outputs are mostly of the following types:
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item long integers in the strict format,
+\item fractions in the |A/B[N]| format where |A| and |B| are both strict long
+ integers, and |B| is positive,
+\item numbers in scientific format (with a lowercase |e|),
+\item the private |\xintexpr| format which needs the |\xintthe| prefix in order
+ to end up on the printed page (or get expanded in the log)
+ or be used as argument to the package macros.

+\item so far only |\xinttheexpr| was mentioned: there is also |\xintexpr| which,

+ \csbxint{theexpr} as was done in the definition of |\formula| is equivalent to
+ \csbxint{the}|\xintexpr|.
+\item This latter form is convenient when one has defined for
+ example:
+%
+\centeredline{|\def\x {\xintexpr \a + \b \relax}| or |\edef\x {\xintexpr \a+\b\relax}|}
+%
+One may then do |\xintthe\x|, either for printing the result

+computation but keeps it in an internal private format.
+Naturally, the |\edef| is only possible if |\a| and |\b| are already defined.
