- Subject: [ANN] lbn - fast big-number library
- From: Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo <lhf@...>

I've written a Lua binding to the bn subsystem of OpenSSL:
http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/#lbn
This is a fast, integer-only, big-number library that is suitable for
number-theoretical and cryptographic applications.
If you're running Unix, you probably already have OpenSSL installed,
and so you only need to do "make".
I thank Valerio Schiavoni for telling me about the existence of bn.
Checksum and other data available at
http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~lhf/ftp/lua/release.txt
Like all my code, lbn is in the public domain.
Enjoy. All feedback welcome.
