quite interesting! Is there any documentation how to use it? > Some notes about our slides: > > First public GMP releaae wasn't 1.3.2 (sic) in 1993 but 1.1 in 1991. my source was ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gmp/, where the first version is 1.3.2. But indeed in https://members.loria.fr/PZimmermann/bignum/comp.ps.gz I used GMP 1.2 from December 1991.
