Class Methods


constructor Math_BigInteger [line 267]

Math_BigInteger Math_BigInteger( [optional $x = 0], [optional $base = 10])

Converts base-2, base-10, base-16, and binary strings (eg. base-256) to BigIntegers.

If the second parameter - $base - is negative, then it will be assumed that the number's are encoded using two's compliment. The sole exception to this is -10, which is treated the same as 10 is.

Here's an example:

  1.  <?php
  2.     include('Math/BigInteger.php');
  3.  
  4.     $a new Math_BigInteger('0x32'16)// 50 in base-16
  5.  
  6.     echo $a->toString()// outputs 50
  7.  ?>

Parameters:

optional   $x   base-10 number or base-$base number if $base set.
optional   $base   integer $base

method abs [line 2518]

Math_BigInteger abs( )

Parameters:

Math_BigInteger   $x  

[ Top ]

method compare [line 2554]

Integer compare( $y, Math_BigInteger $x)

Compares two numbers.

Although one might think !$x->compare($y) means $x != $y, it, in fact, means the opposite. The reason for this is demonstrated thusly:

$x > $y: $x->compare($y) > 0 $x < $y: $x->compare($y) < 0 $x == $y: $x->compare($y) == 0

Note how the same comparison operator is used. If you want to test for equality, use $x->equals($y).




Tags:

return:  < 0 if $this is less than $x; > 0 if $this is greater than $x, and 0 if they are equal.

Parameters:

Math_BigInteger   $x  
   $y  

[ Top ]

method copy [line 674]

Math_BigInteger copy( )

Copy an object

PHP5 passes objects by reference while PHP4 passes by value. As such, we need a function to guarantee that all objects are passed by value, when appropriate. More information can be found here:

[ Top ]

method divide [line 1333]

Array divide( Math_BigInteger $y)

Divides two BigIntegers.

Returns an array whose first element contains the quotient and whose second element contains the "common residue". If the remainder would be positive, the "common residue" and the remainder are the same. If the remainder would be negative, the "common residue" is equal to the sum of the remainder and the divisor (basically, the "common residue" is the first positive modulo).

Here's an example:

  1.  <?php
  2.     include('Math/BigInteger.php');
  3.  
  4.     $a new Math_BigInteger('10');
  5.     $b new Math_BigInteger('20');
  6.  
  7.     list($quotient$remainder$a->divide($b);
  8.  
  9.     echo $quotient->toString()// outputs 0
  10.     echo "\r\n";
  11.     echo $remainder->toString()// outputs 10
  12.  ?>

method equals [line 2612]

Boolean equals( Math_BigInteger $x)

Parameters:

Math_BigInteger   $x  

[ Top ]

method extendedGCD [line 2375]

Math_BigInteger extendedGCD( Math_BigInteger $n)

Calculates the greatest common divisor and Bézout's identity.

Say you have 693 and 609. The GCD is 21. Bézout's identity states that there exist integers x and y such that 693*x + 609*y == 21. In point of fact, there are actually an infinite number of x and y combinations and which combination is returned is dependant upon which mode is in use. See Bézout's identity - Wikipedia for more information.

Here's an example:

  1.  <?php
  2.     include('Math/BigInteger.php');
  3.  
  4.     $a new Math_BigInteger(693);
  5.     $b new Math_BigInteger(609);
  6.  
  7.     extract($a->extendedGCD($b));
  8.  
  9.     echo $gcd->toString("\r\n"// outputs 21
  10.     echo $a->toString($x->toString($b->toString($y->toString()// outputs 21
  11.  ?>

Parameters:

Math_BigInteger   $n  

[ Top ]

method gcd [line 2506]

Math_BigInteger gcd( Math_BigInteger $n)

Say you have 693 and 609. The GCD is 21.

Here's an example:

  1.  <?php
  2.     include('Math/BigInteger.php');
  3.  
  4.     $a new Math_BigInteger(693);
  5.     $b new Math_BigInteger(609);
  6.  
  7.     $gcd a->extendedGCD($b);
  8.  
  9.     echo $gcd->toString("\r\n"// outputs 21
  10.  ?>

Parameters:

Math_BigInteger   $n  

[ Top ]

method isPrime [line 3158]

Boolean isPrime( [optional $t = false])

Checks a numer to see if it's prime

Assuming the $t parameter is not set, this function has an error rate of 2**-80. The main motivation for the $t parameter is distributability. Math_BigInteger::randomPrime() can be distributed accross multiple pageloads on a website instead of just one.

[ Top ]

method modInverse [line 2309]

mixed modInverse( Math_BigInteger $n)

Calculates modular inverses.

Here's an example:

  1.  <?php
  2.     include('Math/BigInteger.php');
  3.  
  4.     $a new Math_BigInteger(30);
  5.     $b new Math_BigInteger(17);
  6.  
  7.     $c $a->modInverse($b);
  8.     echo $c->toString()// outputs 4
  9.  
  10.     echo "\r\n";
  11.  
  12.     $d $a->multiply($c);
  13.     list($d$d->divide($b);
  14.     echo $d// outputs 1 (as per the definition of modular inverse)

method __clone [line 711]

Math_BigInteger __clone( )

__clone() magic method

Although you can call Math_BigInteger::__toString() directly in PHP5, you cannot call Math_BigInteger::__clone() directly in PHP5. You can in PHP4 since it's not a magic method, but in PHP5, you have to call it by using the PHP5 only syntax of $y = clone $x. As such, if you're trying to write an application that works on both PHP4 and PHP5, call Math_BigInteger::copy(), instead.
