Subject: [ruby-core:44733] [ruby-trunk - Feature #6362] Modular exponentiation/inverse


Issue #6362 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada).


=begin
What about a new class, say Modulo?

  m = Modulo.new(101, 11)
  m.to_i #=> 2
  m**4 #=> 5
=end

I'd like to ask your opinion about adding two methods for modular 
exponentiation/modular inverse to integer classes. Is this 
functionality too specific or would this be a welcome addition?
