This release that fixes an infinite loop bug in the (non-standard)
extended math library functions root() and cbrt(), fixes a bug with
BC_LINE_LENGTH=0, and adds the fib() function to the extended math
library to calculate Fibonacci numbers.
This version adds options and functions that allow to print numbers
in the open interval (-1 .. 1) with or without a leading 0 digit.
Additionally, an option has been added to prevent line wrap and
allows to print arbitrarily long results on a single line.
This is a new major release with a number of changes and extensions:
- Limited the number of temporary numbers and made the space for them
static so that allocating more space for them cannot fail.
- Allowed integers with non-zero scale to be used with power, places,
and shift operators.
- Added greatest common divisor and least common multiple to lib2.bc.
- Made bc and dc UTF-8 capable.
- Added the ability for users to have bc and dc quit on SIGINT.
- Added the ability for users to disable prompt and TTY mode by
environment variables.
- Added the ability for users to redefine keywords.
- Added dc's modular exponentiation and divmod to bc.
- Added the ability to assign strings to variables and array elements
and pass them to functions in bc.
- Added dc's asciify command and stream printing to bc.
- Added bitwise and, or, xor, left shift, right shift, reverse,
left rotate, right rotate, and mod functions to lib2.bc.
- Added the functions s2u(x) and s2un(x,n), to lib2.bc.
