MS VC Developer Studio 2003.
I have some rather large integer numbers, 128 bits, I need to crunch. I
need to be able to add, subtract, multiply, and divide. In no case would
the result exceed 128 bits. Test for equal, greater than, less than.
I would use _int128 if it existed.
The values are currently in byte arrays such as:
unsigned char value[16];
arranged little endian (least significant first).
Anyone know of a quick and easy way to do this?
Thanks,
Bruce. 7 4901

By treating the arrays as pairs of int64_t's ?
When 64-bit machines were far less common, many used a library developed
by Netscape to support 64-bit arithmetic using arrays of two 32-bit numbers.
It was supported by a header file of prototypes and macros to account for
endianness concerns.
I suspect that much of that code could be reused for your application.

Any idea where I might find that code?

Please don't multi-post on Usenet. Cross-post if you think your

Use lcc-win32, it provides 128 bit numbers in the standard
distribution http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~lcc-win32

Dear Bruce,
Please try Intel 128 bit instruction(SSE /2/3) and 128 bit
registers(XMM registers). You can use these instructions for 128 bit
arithmetic. PADD*, PMUL* PSUB* etc are some of the instruction
samples. Even AMD processors have these kind instructions. Please read
the instructions manuals.
Use _asm block to right assembly in VC2003.
Thanks and regards,
Amal P.
There is a library available called GMP. It allows you to deal with
integers of arbitrary precision (reals and rationals too).
