Donald P. Story submitted an update to the fc-arith package. Version number: 2016-12-10 License type: lppl1 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.

CTAN update: xint

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package. Version number: 1.2i 2016-12-13 License type: lppl1.3 Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This release principally brings speed improvements to under the hood auxiliary (mainly non arithmetic) routines. As a result xintTrunc, xintRound, xintXTrunc got faster. Also xintKeep, xintTrim, and xintLength were somewhat refactored and are faster. New macros xintLastItem and omannumeralxintgobble (for cleaning up hundreds of thousands of unwanted tokens, if needed) and also omannumeralxintreplicate which is simply borrowed from expl3 with some minor changes. Some aspects of xintFor are better explained in the docs. The documentation has dropped all usage of LaTeX command, which was for some unknown reason to be found at a number of locations of the user manual, in favor of macro, which is more apt for a package (which works under any TeX -- as long as its primitives are not obfuscated of course!) almost all of whose macros work by expansion only (and umexpr). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package's Catalogue entry can be viewed at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xint The package's files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
