I'm sure FPGA logic designers have often heard it said: “We just need to take this number mod 3.” Or maybe something like, “Just round to the nearest hundred.” This latter case really means: “Take the ...

You may never have heard of modular arithmetic, but you use it every day without the slightest difficulty. In this system, numbers wrap around when they reach a certain size called the modulus; it is ...

n.inverse (modulus): Multiplicative inverse in modulo arithmetic (extended Euclidean algorithm). n.isPrime (): Miller–Rabin primality test. The implementations are intended to be reasonably efficient, ...
