About:
Ttmath is a lightweight, header-only C++ library for arbitrary-precision arithmetic. It provides high-performance big integer operations without external dependencies, making it ideal for cryptographic and mathematical applications.
Key Features:
  • Header-only library with no external dependencies
  • Supports arbitrary-precision integers and floating-point numbers
  • Optimized for performance with a clean C++ API
  • Cross-platform compatibility
Use Cases:
  • Cryptographic algorithm implementation
  • High-precision scientific computing
  • Financial calculations requiring exact decimal arithmetic
  • Competitive programming problems with large numbers
Alternatives:
  • GMP – More feature-rich but requires separate installation and linking
  • Boost.Multiprecision – Part of larger Boost suite, heavier dependency but more comprehensive
