Fast Library for Number Theory

v0.1.4 · Dec 19, 2025 · GPL (>= 2)

Description

An R interface to 'FLINT' <https://flintlib.org/>, a C library for number theory. 'FLINT' extends GNU 'MPFR' <https://www.mpfr.org/> and GNU 'MP' <https://gmplib.org/> with support for operations on standard rings (the integers, the integers modulo n, finite fields, the rational, p-adic, real, and complex numbers) as well as matrices and polynomials over rings. 'FLINT' implements midpoint-radius interval arithmetic, also known as ball arithmetic, in the real and complex numbers, enabling computation in arbitrary precision with rigorous propagation of rounding and other errors; see Johansson (2017) <doi:10.1109/TC.2017.2690633>. Finally, 'FLINT' provides ball arithmetic implementations of many special mathematical functions, with high coverage of reference works such as the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions <https://dlmf.nist.gov/>. The R interface defines S4 classes, generic functions, and methods for representation and basic operations as well as plain R functions mirroring and vectorizing entry points in the C library.
