Stable releases are tagged. + +Documentation is built from the LaTeX file `bn.tex`. There is also limited documentation in `tommath.h`. +There is also a document, `tommath.pdf`, which describes the goals of the project and many of the algorithms used. + +The project can be build by using `make`. Along with the usual `make`, `make clean` and `make install`, +there are several other build targets, see the makefile for details. +There are also makefiles for certain specific platforms. + +## Testing + +Tests are located in `demo/` and can be built in two flavors. +* `make test` creates a stand-alone test binary that executes several test routines. +* `make mtest_opponent` creates a test binary that is intended to be run against `mtest`. + `mtest` can be built with `make mtest` and test execution is done like `./mtest/mtest | ./mtest_opponent`. + `mtest` is creating test vectors using an alternative MPI library and `test` is consuming these vectors to verify correct behavior of ltm + +## Building and Installing + +Building is straightforward for GNU Linux only, the section "Building LibTomMath" in the documentation in `doc/bn.pdf` has the details. |
