As always, I hope that those folks who deeply understand math stuff
can be empowered to submit/review.
Looks good, except for some minor style issues:
Probably want to leave debug print commented out in the final version?
- //System.err.println(x+": "+bitCount+", "+bigX.bitCount());
+ System.err.println(x+": "+bitCount+", "+bigX.bitCount());
Even for private methods, we should use standard javadoc style, so add
missing asterisks below.
+ /** Returns a slice of a BigInteger for use in Toom-Cook multiplication.
+ @param lowerSize The size of the lower-order bit slices.
+ @param upperSize The size of the higher-order bit slices.
+ @param slice The index of which slice is requested, which must be a
+ number from 0 to size-1. Slice 0 is the highest-order
+ bits, and slice size-1 are the lowest-order bits.
+ Slice 0 may be of different size than the other slices.
+ @param fullsize The size of the larger integer array, used to align
+ slices to the appropriate position when multiplying
+ different-sized numbers.
