Features:
|
| 8 |
- Rich set of number classes:
|
| 9 |
Integer (unlimited precision), rational, short float,
|
| 10 |
single float, double float, long float (unlimited
|
| 11 |
precision), complex, modular integer, univariate polynomial.
|
| 12 |
- Elementary, logical, transcendental functions.
|
| 13 |
- C++ as implementation language brings
|
| 14 |
- efficiency,
|
| 15 |
- type safety,
|
| 16 |
- algebraic syntax.
|
| 17 |
- Memory efficiency:
|
| 18 |
- Small integers and short floats are immediate,
|
| 19 |
not heap allocated.
|
| 20 |
- Automatic, non-interruptive garbage collection.
|
| 21 |
- Speed efficiency:
|
| 22 |
- Assembly language kernel for some CPUs,
|
| 23 |
- Karatsuba and Schönhage-Strassen multiplication.
|
| 24 |
- Interoperability:
|
| 25 |
- Garbage collection with no burden on
|
| 26 |
the main application,
|
| 27 |
- hooks for memory allocation and exceptions.
|
