Detailed Description

LinBox integer representation and operations.

LinBox integers come from Givaro which uses GMP. This ensures fastest operations.

LinBox provides :

• LinBox::Integer is the Givaro representation of an integer (Givaro::Integer).
• LinBox::integer is a synonym
• LinBox::PID_integer is a domain (ref ???) to perform integers operation on.
• Others ?

other use of integers ?

Warning:

due to the construction of Givaro, you should always prefer to group operations as in the example :

 Integer a=1,b=1,c=1;
 c += a * b ;    // slow
 axpyin(c,a,b) ; // faster
