\item[1.2c (2017/12/05)] \textbf{Breaking changes:}
\begin{itemize}
\item requires \xintcorename |1.2p| or later (if not using option |custom|).
\item |divtrunc| key of |\bnumexprsetup| is renamed to |div|.
\item the |//| and |/:| operators are now by default associated to the
\emph{floored} division. This is to keep in sync with the change of
\xintcorename at |1.2p|.
\item for backwards compatibility, one
may add to existing document:\newline
\string\bnumexprsetup\{div=\string\xintiiDivTrunc,
mod=\string\xintiiModTrunc\}
\end{itemize}
\item[1.2b (2017/07/09)]
\begin{itemize}
\item the |_| may be used to separate visually blocks of digits in long
numbers.
\end{itemize}
\item[1.2a (2015/10/14)]
\begin{itemize}
\item requires \xintcorename |1.2| or later (if not using option |custom|).
\item additions to the syntax: factorial |!|, truncated division
|//|, its associated modulo |/:| and |**| as alternative to |^|.
\item all options removed except |custom|.
\item new command |\bnumexprsetup| which replaces the commands such as
|\bnumexprusesbigintcalc|.
\item the parser is no more limited to numbers with at most 5000 digits.
\end{itemize}
\item[1.1b (2014/10/28)]
\begin{itemize}
\item README converted to |markdown/pandoc| syntax,
\item the package now loads only |xintcore|, which belongs to |xint| bundle
version |1.1| and extracts from the earlier |xint| package the core arithmetic
operations as used by |bnumexpr|.
\end{itemize}
\item[1.1a (2014/09/22)]
\begin{itemize}
\item added |l3bigint| option to use experimental \LaTeX3
package of the same name,
\item added Changes and Readme sections to the documentation,
\item better |\BNE_protect| mechanism for use of
|\bnumexpr...\relax| inside an |\edef| (without |\bnethe|). Previous one,
inherited from |xintexpr.sty 1.09n|, assumed that the |\.=<digits>| dummy
control sequence encapsulating the computation result had |\relax|
meaning. But removing this assumption was only a matter of letting
|\BNE_protect| protect two, not one, tokens. This will be backported to
next version of \xintexprname, naturally (done with |xintexpr.sty 1.1|).
\end{itemize}
\item[1.1 (2014/09/21)] First release. This is down-scaled from the
(development version of) \xintexprname. Motivation came the previous day
from a chat with \textsc{Joseph Wright} over big int status in \LaTeX3.
The |\bnumexpr...\relax| parser can be used on top of big int macros of
one's choice. Functionalities limited to the basic operations. I leave
the power operator |^| as an option.
