Conversions to and from strings
val to_string : big_int -> string
val string_of_big_int : big_int -> string
Return the string representation of the given big integer,
in decimal (base 10).
val of_string : string -> big_int
val big_int_of_string : string -> big_int
Convert a string to a big integer, in decimal.
The string consists of an optional - or + sign,
followed by one or several decimal digits.
val to_string_in_binary : big_int -> string
as string_of_big_int, but in base 2
val to_string_in_octal : big_int -> string
as string_of_big_int, but in base 8
val to_string_in_hexa : big_int -> string
as string_of_big_int, but in base 16
val to_string_in_base : int -> big_int -> string
to_string_in_base b n returns the string representation in base b of
the given big integer n. Should you have advanced needs (arbitrarily large
bases, or custom digits instead of the usual 0,1,...9,a,b,...,z), use
to_string_in_custom_base instead.
Raises Invalid_argument if b is not in
2 .. 36.
val to_string_in_custom_base : string -> int -> big_int -> string
First argument, called symbols, is the vector of the symbols used to
represent the digits in base b. to_string_in_base is almost equivalent to
to_string_in_custom_base big_int_base_default_symbols, the difference being
that to_string_in_custom_base allows the base to be arbitrarily large,
provided that symbols can accommodate it. Concretely, the base b must be at
least 2, and symbols must be of size at least b. The default value of
big_int_base_default_symbols contains 62 symbols, as it uses lowercase and
uppercase letters both. See below for more information.
Raises Invalid_argument if b is incorrect.
val big_int_base_default_symbols : string
Default vector of symbols used by to_string_in_base and its fixed-base
derivatives to_string_in_binary, to_string_in_octal and to_string_in_hexa
to represent digits. The symbol at position p encodes the value p. The
original value of this vector is, schematically, ['0'..'9' 'a' 'b'..'z' 'A'
'B'..'Z'], which is sufficient for bases up to and including 62. The basic
to_string_in_base function is capped to base 36 to avoid unexpected
behaviours do to the case-sensitivity of the output in bases 37 to 62. You
technically can mutate the vector, for instance if you prefer to exchange
lower- and upper-case symbols program-wide. As usual where mutability is
concerned, discretion is advised. Most of the time, it is better to build
custom functions using to_string_in_custom_base.
Conversions to and from other numerical types
val of_int : int -> big_int

is_int_big_int a returns true if and only if
a is between -230 and 230-1. On a 64-bit platform,
is_int_big_int a returns true if and only if
a is between -262 and 262-1.

val shift_left_big_int : big_int -> int -> big_int
shift_left_big_int b n returns b shifted left by n bits.

shift_right_towards_zero_big_int b n returns b shifted
right by n bits. The shift is performed on the absolute

rounded towards zero.
: big_int -> int -> int -> big_int
extract_big_int bi ofs n returns a nonnegative number
corresponding to bits ofs to ofs + n - 1 of the
binary representation of bi. If bi is negative,
a two's complement representation is used.
