Name : ntl
Product : Fedora 24
Version : 9.7.0
Release : 1.fc24
URL : http://shoup.net/ntl/
Summary : High-performance algorithms for vectors, matrices, and polynomials
Description :
NTL is a high-performance, portable C++ library providing data structures
and algorithms for arbitrary length integers; for vectors, matrices, and
polynomials over the integers and over finite fields; and for arbitrary
precision floating point arithmetic.
NTL provides high quality implementations of state-of-the-art algorithms for:
* arbitrary length integer arithmetic and arbitrary precision floating point
arithmetic;
* polynomial arithmetic over the integers and finite fields including basic
arithmetic, polynomial factorization, irreducibility testing, computation
of minimal polynomials, traces, norms, and more;
* lattice basis reduction, including very robust and fast implementations of
Schnorr-Euchner, block Korkin-Zolotarev reduction, and the new
Schnorr-Horner pruning heuristic for block Korkin-Zolotarev;
* basic linear algebra over the integers, finite fields, and arbitrary
precision floating point numbers.

Update Information:
cryptominisat-2.9.11-1.fc24: - This maintenance release is to fix a bug in the
Gaussian Elimination code that could trigger in some situations. gmp-
ecm-7.0-1.fc24: - GMP-ECM is now thread-safe. In particular the "ecmfactor"
binary can be called with say -t 17 to use 17 threads. - Added GPU code for Step
1 (command-line option -gpu). - Command-line option -param allows to choose the
parametrization (valid values are 0, 1, 2, 3). Command-line option -sigma allows
to choose the parameter. "-sigma i:s" is a shortcut to "-param i -sigma s". Use
-param 0 to get historical Suyama parametrization. - The batch mode is now
chosen with -param command-line option. The default parametrization depends on
other command-line options. - For P-1 stage 2, by default the NTT code is always
used. - Speedup in stage 2 with -no-ntt - New primality proving code with APRCL
(contributed by David Cleaver) with --enable-aprcl (default=yes) - Removed some
options that were unused or not tested (-n, -nn, -ve, -cofdec, -B2scale). - The
configure --enable-shellcmd option was removed, and also the --enable-memory-
debug configure option (now obsolete with valgrind). - The -b options was
removed (breadth-first mode) - Improved source coverage (92.7% of source code
lines) minisat2-2.2.1-1.fc24: - Use Debian sources (minor fixes and cleanups
over previous upstream). ntl-9.7.0-1.fc24: - See http://shoup.net/ntl/doc
/tour-changes.html for changes in this release. sympy-1.0-1.fc24: - See
https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/Release-Notes-for-1.0 for changes in this
release. cbmc-5.4-1.fc24: - See
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/cprover/X-OkBlbI2-M for changes in this
release. All other packages are rebuilds due to the updated packages above.
