Gwydion Dylan (http://www.gwydiondylan.org) contains a bignum library
as part of the standard distribution. Using bignums in Dylan is as
easy as:
let expected-result = #e1558005952997140033806173725098810522409738596181909282129;
if(#e23 ^ #e42 == expected-result)
format-out("Bignums work!\n");
else
format-out("You lose!\n");
end if;
the #e being the syntax for specifying bignum constants (which are
known as <extended-integer> to Dylan).
<help request>
This library is still missing a couple of features such as modexp,
and could use some regression testing. Volounteers wanted.
