Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Improvements and new features
- xinttools and xintexpr:
1. slightly improves the speed of xintTrim.
2. speed gains for the handlers of comma separated lists
implementing Python-like slicing and item extraction.
Relevant non (user) documented macros better documented
in sourcexint.pdf.
- significant documentations tweaks (inclusive of suppressing
things!), and among them two beautiful hyperlinked tables with
both horizontal and vertical rules which bring the documentation
of the xintexpr syntax to a kind of awe-inspiring perfection...
except that implementation of some math functions is still
lacking.
Bug fixes
- fix two 1.2i regressions caused by undefined macros (xintNthElt
in certain branches and [list][N] item extraction in certain
cases.) The test files existed but were not executed prior to
release. Automation in progress.

Summary description: Create an arithmetic flash card
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
fc_arith is a LaTeX package used to create an arithmetic flash card.
Addition, subtraction, ultiplication, and division problems are
randomly generated. There is a menu system for setting the intervals
from which to randomly draw numbers, and the number of decimal places
these numbers hould have. The user can optionally compete against the
clock, and awarded points as a function of how fast the problem is
correctly solved.
What's New (2016/12/10): All the standard PDF creators can build the
demo file fc_noacrobat.tex. If you own the Acrobat application, you can
also build fc_acrobat.tex using any workflow (dvips/distiller,
pdflatex, lualatex, and xelatex). Additional commands are defined to
localize virtually strings the package uses. A redefined menu
environment (MenuFC) is more flexible than the old one. Fixed a lot of
bugs found by my greatest user and tester J. Gilg.
