CLN is a library for computations with all kinds of numbers. It has a
|
|
|
|
|
rich set of number classes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Integers (with unlimited precision),
|
|
|
|
|
- Rational numbers,
|
|
|
|
|
- Floating-point numbers:
|
|
|
|
|
Short float,
|
|
|
|
|
Single float,
|
|
|
|
|
Double float,
|
|
|
|
|
Long float (with unlimited precision),
|
|
|
|
|
- Complex numbers,
|
|
|
|
|
- Modular integers (integers modulo a fixed integer),
|
|
|
|
|
- Univariate polynomials.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The subtypes of the complex numbers among these are exactly the types
|
|
|
|
|
of numbers known to the Common Lisp language. Therefore CLN can be used
|
|
|
|
|
for Common Lisp implementations, giving `CLN' another meaning: it
|
|
|
|
|
becomes an abbreviation of "Common Lisp Numbers".
