The `tommath_int` back-end is used via the typedef `boost::multiprecision::tom_int`. It acts as a thin wrapper around the [tommath] `tom_int`
|
|
to provide an integer type that is a drop-in replacement for the native C++ integer types, but with unlimited precision.
|
|
|
|
Things you should know when using this type:
|
|
|
|
* Default constructed objects have the value zero (this is [tommath]'s default behavior).
|
|
* Although `tom_int` is mostly a drop in replacement for the integer __fundamental_types, it should be noted that it is a
|
|
rather strange beast as it's a signed type that is not a 2's complement type. As a result the bitwise operations
|
|
`| & ^` will throw a `std::runtime_error` exception if either of the arguments is negative. Similarly the complement
|
|
operator`~` is deliberately not implemented for this type.
|
|
* Formatted IO for this type does not support octal or hexadecimal notation for negative values,
|
|
as a result performing formatted output on this type when the argument is negative and either of the flags
|
|
`std::ios_base::oct` or `std::ios_base::hex` are set, will result in a `std::runtime_error` will be thrown.
|
|
* Conversion from a string results in a `std::runtime_error` being thrown if the string can not be interpreted
|
|
as a valid integer.
|
|
* Division by zero results in a `std::overflow_error` being thrown.
