Some folks might think: “you still use RCS”?!? And we will say, hey, at least we switched from SCCS to RCS back in … I think it was around 1994 ... at least we are keeping up! :-) :-) :-) Logs say that SCCS version 18 became RCS version 19 on 1994 March 18. RCS served us well. But now it is time to move on. And so we are switching to git. Calc releases produce a lot of file changes. In the 125 releases of calc since 1996, when I started managing calc releases, there have been 15473 file mods!

Sample usage of libcalc.a
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
This directory contains a few examples of how to use libcalc.a.
|
|
|
|
For more details on how to use libcalc.a, see the file LIBRARY.

test_random
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Generate random bits using the Blum-Blum-Shub generator that
|
|
is used by the random() and srandom() builtin functions.
|
|
|
|
This prog uses the 10th compiled in Blum modulus.
|
|
|
|
This routine makes use of some of the lib_util.c routines.
|
|
|
|
usage:
|
|
|
|
test_random [bitlen [seed_string]]
|
|
|
|
bitlen number of random bits to generate (default: 128 bits)
|
|
seed_string seed using this ASCII string (default: use default seed)
|
|
|
|
|
|
many_random
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
Generate many (100000) sets random bits using the Blum-Blum-Shub
|
|
generator that is used by the random() and srandom() builtin functions.
|
|
|
|
Output is one set per line. Unlike test_random, the seed is not
|
|
printed. There is no leading 0x on numbers and there is no prefix
|
|
strings. The only thing printed (normally) is ASCII hex chars and
|
|
newlines.
|
|
|
|
Unlike test_random, this prog will execute for a while. It is
|
|
useful to watch the process size in order to determine of there
|
|
is a memory leak.
