C++ library for doing number theory
NTL is a high-performance, portable C++ library providing data
structures and algorithms for arbitrary length integers; for vectors,
matrices, and polynomials over the integers and over finite fields;
and for arbitrary precision floating point arithmetic.
NTL provides high quality implementations of state-of-the-art algorithms for:
o arbitrary length integer arithmetic and arbitrary precision
floating point arithmetic;
o polynomial arithmetic over the integers and finite fields
including basic arithmetic, polynomial factorization,
irreducibility testing, computation of minimal polynomials,
traces, norms, and more;
o lattice basis reduction, including very robust and fast
implementations of Schnorr-Euchner, block Korkin-Zolotarev
reduction, and the new Schnorr-Horner pruning heuristic for block
Korkin-Zolotarev;
o basic linear algebra over the integers, finite fields, and
arbitrary precision floating point numbers.
NTL is free software, and may be used according to the terms of the
GNU General Public License.
pchar-1.3 ("Year of the Snake" release): New analysis types, support
for ICMP and ICMPv6 probe packets, "tiny traceroute" mode, outgoing
interface selection, bugfixes.
Disable SNMP support as it is not yet fully integrated.
TSCP is intended for people who want to learn about chess programming. Its
source code is designed to be very easy to understand.
The TSCP "package" includes this README file, the TSCP source code, and a copy
of TSCP for Windows 95/98/NT. The executable was made with Visual C++ 6.0
(optimizations set to Maximize Speed).
To use TSCP, run the executable and type "help" at the prompt. It's very
straightforward.
There is a page for TSCP benchmarks: http://ucsu.colorado.edu/~kerrigat/bench/
Terminal locking utility with many improvements over lock(1)
Gone is a utility that locks a terminal with a password
chosen by the user. Gone will prompt the user for a pass-
word (unless the -p option is given, then gone will use the system
password), then print the gone banner, then drop into the gone
shell. From this shell, only a restricted set of commands
can be run. Gone will also disallow messages by removing
permissions on the parent tty. After the timeout period
(10 minutes by default), gone will automatically log the
user out.

Changes since 0.5:
0.9 8 Aug 2000
- Fixed up test suite to work under 5.6.0.
0.8 26 Jul 2000
- Made SmallProf -w-clean (at least so far as I can tell :-)
0.7 28 Jul 1999
- Some cleanup on sub profiling and locales
- fixed up and added some tests
0.6 11 Jul 1999
- Cleanup on part4.t and part1.t (Thanks!)
- Removed special Win32 support as Time::HiRes now works on Win32
- Fixed a bug in sub sub where $1 and $2 were getting clobbered.
- Increased size of execution count column
- Added CPU times
1.20 Wed Feb 24 21:30 1999
- make our usleep and ualarm substitutes into hrt_usleep
and hrt_ualarm. This helps static links of Perl with other
packages that also have usleep, etc. From
Ilya Zakharevich <ilya@math.ohio-state.edu>
- add C API stuff. From Joshua Pritikin
<joshua.pritikin@db.com>
- VMS Makefile.PL fun. From pvhp@forte.com (Peter Prymmer)
- hopefully correct "-lc" fix for SCO.
- add PPD stuff
* tinydns now automatically returns a random set of 8 addresses from
a cluster of any size. It also supports client differentiation. There's no
longer any reason to use pickdns. dnstracesort prints glue information that
reveals all sorts of interesting inconsistencies.
* minor pkg's Makefile improvements
Update submitted by Tomasz Luchowski <zuntum@eik.pl> in private mail.
in the "show-downlevel" target, since a number of package names do not
correspond to Dewey decimal version numbers (e.g. 2.4.1p1)
Instead, use pkg_info(1) to retrieve the installed package name, and
compare that against ${PKGNAME}.
Fixes PR 12041, from Bernd Ernesti
This bumps the version number to 4.0.4.1nb1. Also, build the php CGI
binary by statically linking against the helper library libphp4.la so we
aren't forced to install a shared library used solely by one program.
