CTAN update: xint
by CTAN Announcements 13 Mar '16

13 Mar '16

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package. Version number: 1.2f 2016-03-12 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bug fixes - squaring macro xintSqr from xintfrac.sty was broken due to a misspelled sub-macro name. Dates back to 1.1 release of 2014/10/28 :-((. - 1.2c's fix to the subtraction bug from 1.2 introduced another bug, which in some cases could create leading zeroes in the output, or even worse. This could invalidate other routines using subtractions, like xintiiSquareRoot. Improvements and new features - functions binomial, pfactorial and factorial in both INT and float versions. - faster implementation and increased accuracy of float power macros. - faster implementation of both integral and float square root macros. - the float square root achieves _correct_ (aka _exact_) rounding in arbitrary precision. - modified behaviour for the xintPFloat macro, used by xintthefloatexpr to prettify its output. It now opts for decimal notation if and only if scientific notation would use an exponent between -5 and 5 inclusive. The zero value is printed 0. with a dot. - the documentation offers a more precise (and accurate) discussion of floating point issues. - various under-the-hood code improvements; the floatexpr operations are chained in a faster way, from skipping some unneeded parsing on results of earlier computations. The absence of a real inner data structure for floats (incorporating their precisions, for one) is however still a bit hair rising: currently the lengths of the mantissas of the operands are computed again by each float macro or expression operation. - renewed desperate efforts at improving the documentation by random shuffling of sections and well thought additions; cuts were considered and even performed. See CHANGES.{html,pdf} for more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint We are supported by the TeX User Groups.

Don't worry, however: the modified feature has only been introduced a month ago, in v2.0.0, so you probably haven't used it yet. The semantics of the parenthesized optional argument to `forest` environment has changed. The argument was introduced in v2.0.0: if present, it redefined `stages` style for the current environment/macro. This argument is now generalized to allow further (pre-`stages`) customization in future versions of the package. To temporarily redefine stages, write (stages={...}).

All common TeX engines and back-ends are supported: * pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX * LaTeX --> dvips --> ps2pdf/Distiller * (Xe)LaTeX --> (x)dvipdfmx The user commands are: * content saving: xsavebox{<name>}[<width>][<position>]{...} xsavebox*{<name>}[<width>][<position>]{...} xsbox{<name>}{...} egin{xlrbox}{<name>}...end{xlrbox} egin{xlrbox*}{<name>}...end{xlrbox*} <name> is an identifier (not a command!) composed of arbitrary non-active characters, including spaces and numbers. A command for declaration of <name> does not exist. Starred `*' variants allow for colour injection (pdfLaTeX/LuaLaTeX only). * content insertion (referencing): xusebox{<name>} he<name> The second, short form is useable if <name> is composed of [a-zA-Z]. The package was written in the LaTeX3 syntax. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/xsavebox More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xsavebox We are supported by the TeX user groups.
