Announcing IntegerMathUtils.jl

Hi all, I’m just announcing a small utility package called JuliaMath/IntegerMathUtils.jl.
It adds a few gmp wrappers that provide useful integer functionality that doesn’t exist in Base. Specifically, it currently exports iroot, ispower, find_exponent (not a wrapper, but in the same vein), and is_probably_prime.

If you have more similar utility functions that you don’t have a good place for, feel free to make a PR!

Can you link to the package?

good point. GitHub - JuliaMath/IntegerMathUtils.jl

You can still modify the original post. Interested readers will not have to scroll down to find the link.

For anyone interested, this is officially in the General repository. CI coming soon.
