gmp_init

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5)

gmp_init — Create GMP number

Beschreibung

resource gmp_init ( mixed $number [, int $base ] )

Creates a GMP number from an integer or string.

Parameter-Liste

number

An integer or a string. The string representation can be decimal, hexadecimal or octal.

base

The base. Defaults to 0.

The base may vary from 2 to 36. If base is 0 (default value), the actual base is determined from the leading characters: if the first two characters are 0x or 0X, hexadecimal is assumed, otherwise if the first character is "0", octal is assumed, otherwise decimal is assumed.

Rückgabewerte

Eine resource für einen GMP Wert.

ChangeLog

Version	Beschreibung
4.1.0	The optional `base` parameter was added.

Beispiele

Beispiel #1 Creating GMP number


<?php
$a = gmp_init(123456);
$b = gmp_init("0xFFFFDEBACDFEDF7200");
?>

Anmerkungen

Hinweis: It is not necessary to call this function if you want to use integer or string in place of GMP number in GMP functions, like gmp_add(). Function arguments are automatically converted to GMP numbers, if such conversion is possible and needed, using the same rules as gmp_init().

gmp_* functions don't accept strings with a leading '+':

<?php

echo gmp_strval(gmp_init('+42'));      #0

echo gmp_strval(gmp_add('42', '+42')); #42

echo bcadd('+42', '+42');              #84

?>

Here's a way to parse a decimal (eg 3.25) into an integer and exponent:



<?

if (preg_match("/^[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$/",$input)){ 

     //Input is a base-10 decimal. Multiply as necessary to remove the decimal

     //point. Convert that to a gmp_resource, then decrement the exponent 

     //to compensate.



     $pieces=explode(".", $input);     //Split at the d.p.

     $input="$pieces[0]$pieces[1]";  //Remove the decimal point.



     $input=ltrim($input,'0');    

     //Remove any leading zeros, or gmp_init will parse the number as octal.



     if ($input==''){    //Deal with "0.0" which would otherwise be ''.

          $input=0;

      }

      $integer=gmp_init($input);   

      $ns_exponent=-strlen($pieces[1]);  

     //exponent = (-)  the number of characters after the decimal point.

}

?>

Note: Leading zeros will make gmp_init parse this as octal.

Thus gmp_init(010) becomes 8.  



$a=010;              //8

$b="010" + 0;     //10

$c=gmp_strval(gmp_init(010));    //8

$d=gmp_strval(gmp_init("010")); //8



This behaviour is inconsistent: either $d should equal $b, or

$b should equal $a.

If you call a gmp_* function directly with an interger as parameter, this integer MUST NOT be 0:



for($i=-1;$i<=1;$i++) {  echo gmp_strval(gmp_add(2,gmp_mul(1,$i))) . ' ';  }



The result is 1 0 3 (wrong)



In this case you have to use gmp_init():



for($i=-1;$i<=1;$i++) {  echo gmp_strval(gmp_add(2,gmp_mul(1,gmp_init($i)))) . ' ';  }



The result is 1 2 3 (right)



Happy number crunching! :-)
