Package Name:
perl-Bit-Vector
Summary:
Efficient bit vector, set of integers and "big int" math library
Description:
Bit::Vector is an efficient C library which allows you to handle bit vectors, sets (of integers), "big integer arithmetic" and boolean matrices, all of arbitrary sizes. The library is efficient (in terms of algorithmical complexity) and therefore fast (in terms of execution speed) for instance through the widespread use of divide-and-conquer algorithms.
