title: 'flint: Fast Library for Number Theory'
version: 0.0.4
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.flint
abstract: An R interface to 'FLINT' <https://flintlib.org/>, a C library for number
  theory. 'FLINT' extends GNU 'MPFR' <https://www.mpfr.org/> and GNU 'MP' <https://gmplib.org/>
  with support for operations on standard rings (the integers, the integers modulo
  n, finite fields, the rational, p-adic, real, and complex numbers) as well as matrices
  and polynomials over rings. 'FLINT' implements midpoint-radius interval arithmetic,
  also known as ball arithmetic, in the real and complex numbers, enabling computation
  in arbitrary precision with rigorous propagation of rounding errors; see Johansson
  (2017) <https://doi.org/10.1109/TC.2017.2690633>. Finally, 'FLINT' provides ball
  arithmetic implementations of many special mathematical functions, with high coverage
  of reference works such as the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions <https://dlmf.nist.gov/>.
  The R interface defines S4 classes, generic functions, and methods for representation
  and basic operations as well as plain R functions mirroring and vectorizing entry
  points in the C library.
