Math-BigInt 1.999800

on Perl CPAN

Upgrade bundled Module::Install from version 1.16 to version 1.17.

Add Math::BigInt::Lib (lib/Math/BigInt/Lib.pm), a parent class for
Math::BigInt backend libraries.

Use objects in Math::BigInt::Calc, not just array refs. Also use OO-style,
i.e., use $class->_add($x, $y) rather than _add($class, $x, $y).

Not all library methods modify the invocand, so call library methods as,
e.g, $x = $LIB->method($x, $y) rather than just $LIB->method($x, $y).

Math::BigInt::Calc is now a subclass of Math::BigInt::Lib.

Add Math::BigInt::Lib::Minimal (t/Math/BigInt/Lib/Minimal.pm) for testing
inheritance from Math::BigInt::Lib.

Minor simplification in Math::BigInt::Calc->_str().

Speed up Math::BigInt::Calc->_root().

Remove test files that were included in the previous release by accident.

Add more tests and use more verbose output in some tests.

Fix typo in lib/Math/BigFloat.pm

Fix documentation error in lib/Math/Calc.pm

Use Config::Tiny and an .ini file to handle the library specific
configuration for the author-lib*.t test files.
