Changes for version 0.69 - 2017-11-08

  • ADDED
    • is_totient(n) true if euler_phi(x) == n for some x
  • FUNCTIONALITY AND PERFORMANCE
    • is_square_free uses abs(n), like Pari and moebius.
    • is_primitive_root could be wrong with even n on some platforms.
    • euler_phi and moebius with negative range inputs weren't consistent.
    • factorialmod given a large n and m where m was a composite with large square factors was incorrect. Fixed.
    • numtoperm will accept negative k values (k is always mod n!)
    • Split XS mapping of many primality tests. Makes more sense and improves performance for some calls.
    • Split final test in PP cluster sieve.
    • Support some new Math::Prime::Util::GMP functions from 0.47.
    • C spigot Pi is 30-60% faster on x86_64 by using 32-bit types.
    • Reworked some factoring code.
    • Remove ISAAC (Perl and C) since we use ChaCha.
    • Each thread allocs a new const array again instead of sharing.
