GMP的mpz_mod_ui有效参数

Valid parameters for GMP's mpz_mod_ui

问题

mpz_mod_ui文档中声明其接口为:

unsigned long int mpz_mod_ui (mpz_t r, const mpz_t n, unsigned long int d);

这实际上计算了 r = n % d,其中 r 是一个小于 d 的非负整数,也是函数的结果;或者如果 d == 0,则会导致除零操作。

是否可以将参数 r 设置为 NULL,意味着我们不需要一个用于存储结果的 mpz_t

在C语言中,unsigned long int 不是固定大小。它至少是32位,但通常是64位。GMP是否支持具有不同大小的 unsigned long int 的平台?在所有支持的平台上,最大的有效 d 始终是 ~0UL(或等效地,在C编译器的<limits.h>中定义的 ULONG_MAX)吗?

英文:

The documentation of mpz_mod_ui states it's interface as:

unsigned long int mpz_mod_ui (mpz_t r, const mpz_t n, unsigned long int d);

That essentially computes r = n % d, which is a non-negative integer less than d, also the function result; or cause a division by zero if d == 0.

Is it OK to set the r parameter to NULL, meaning we do not need an mpz_t set to the result?

In C, unsigned long int is not fixed size. It's at-least-32-bit, but is often 64-bit. Is GMP supported on platforms with various size of unsigned long int? Is the largest valid d always ~0UL (or I think equivalently ULONG_MAX defined in &lt;limits.h&gt; of a C compiler) on all supported platforms?

得分: 0

当使用 mpz_mod_ui 时,将 r 参数设置为 NULL,表示不需要一个设置为结果的 mpz_t,这样做是可以的吗?

这不是建议的做法,有更好的方法。如在 评论 中所述,有一个可以计算 n % d(其中 d 适合于 unsigned long int)的函数:

unsigned long int mpz_fdiv_ui (const mpz_t n, unsigned long int d);

GMP 在具有不同大小的 unsigned long int 的平台上受支持吗?

是的。如 另一条评论 中所述,unsigned long 可能是 64 位或 32 位,这取决于 GMP 编译参数,请参阅 ABI 和 ISA 文档。然而,64 位的 unsigned long int 越来越受支持,在每个支持的平台上至少有一种选项可用。

> When using mpz_mod_ui, is it OK to set the r parameter to NULL, meaning we do not need an mpz_t set to the result?

That's not advisable, and there's a better way. As noted in comment, there is a function computing n % d for d that fits an unsigned long int:

unsigned long int mpz_fdiv_ui (const mpz_t n, unsigned long int d);

> Is GMP supported on platforms with various size of unsigned long int?

Yes. As noted in another comment, unsigned long can be 64-bit or 32-bit depending on GMP compilation parameters, see the ABI and ISA documentation. However 64-bit unsigned long int is increasingly supported, and is available on each supported platforms in at least one option.
