brick/math 0.8.16

on PHP Packagist

🚑 Critical fix

• This version reintroduces the deprecated BigInteger::parse() method, that has been removed by mistake in version 0.8.9 and should have lasted for the whole 0.8 release cycle.

✨ New features

• BigInteger::modInverse() calculates a modular multiplicative inverse
• BigInteger::fromBytes() creates a BigInteger from a byte string
• BigInteger::toBytes() converts a BigInteger to a byte string
• BigInteger::randomBits() creates a pseudo-random BigInteger of a given bit length
• BigInteger::randomRange() creates a pseudo-random BigInteger between two bounds

💩 Deprecations

• BigInteger::powerMod() is now deprecated in favour of modPow()
