# This fork
This modifies ibig to accept a custom allocator for some operations.
Specifically, any function which ends in `_stack` will never allocate
except by calling the passed-in allocator with trait `Stack`. This
allocator is assumed to *not* require deallocation, so we leak
everything we allocate in that way.
Further, we leak *all* allocations of multi-word `UBig`s, even those created by
non-`_stack` functions. This means that this repo *must* be used
exclusively with `_stack` functions (or others that you know do not
allocate). To allow easier integration of future upstream changes, we
do not modify existing functions where possible, even though they are no
longer safe to use.
It is recommended to use
[assert-no-alloc](https://github.com/Windfisch/rust-assert-no-alloc) to
verify that no allocations happen.

A big integer library with good performance.
The library implements efficient large integer arithmetic in pure Rust.
The two integer types are `UBig` (for unsigned integers) and `IBig` (for signed integers).
Modular arithmetic is supported by the module `modular`.
## Examples
```rust
use ibig::{ibig, modular::ModuloRing, ubig, UBig};
let a = ubig!(12345678);
let b = ubig!(0x10ff);
let c = ibig!(-azz base 36);
let d: UBig = "15033211231241234523452345345787".parse()?;
let e = 2 * &b + 1;
let f = a * b.pow(10);
assert_eq!(e, ubig!(0x21ff));
assert_eq!(c.to_string(), "-14255");
assert_eq!(
f.in_radix(16).to_string(),
"1589bda8effbfc495d8d73c83d8b27f94954e"
);
assert_eq!(
format!("hello {:#x}", d % ubig!(0xabcd1234134132451345)),
"hello 0x1a7e7c487267d2658a93"
);
let ring = ModuloRing::new(&ubig!(10000));
let x = ring.from(12345);
let y = ring.from(55443);
assert_eq!(format!("{}", x - y), "6902 (mod 10000)");
```
