3 /* LibTomMath, multiple-precision integer library -- Tom St Denis
4 *
5 * LibTomMath is a library that provides multiple-precision
6 * integer arithmetic as well as number theoretic functionality.
7 *
8 * The library was designed directly after the MPI library by
9 * Michael Fromberger but has been written from scratch with
10 * additional optimizations in place.
11 *
12 * The library is free for all purposes without any express
13 * guarantee it works.

18 /* find the n'th root of an integer
19 *
20 * Result found such that (c)**b <= a and (c+1)**b > a
21 *
22 * This algorithm uses Newton's approximation
23 * x[i+1] = x[i] - f(x[i])/f'(x[i])
24 * which will find the root in log(N) time where
25 * each step involves a fair bit. This is not meant to
26 * find huge roots [square and cube, etc].
