CHANGES

2022/04/07

  • Fix a serious bug in Enum.sample, which used OCaml's random number
    generator in such a way that it would always produce the same number. The
    fix modifies the signature of several internal modules, such as
    Feat.RandomBigInt. The public API of the libraries feat and feat-num
    is unaffected. (Reported by Guyslain Naves.)

  • The library is now split in three packages: feat-core, feat, and
    feat-num. feat-core is parameterized over an implementation of big
    integers and over a random number generator. feat instantiates feat-core
    with big integers from the library zarith and with OCaml's standard random
    number generator. feat-num instantiates feat-core with big integers from
    the library num and with OCaml's standard random number generator. The
    packages feat and feat-num offer the same API and are interchangeable.
    (See demo/with-feat and demo/with-feat-num to see how the same code can
    be linked with either package.) The three submodules offered both by feat
    and by feat-num are Num, IFSeq, and Enum. Compatibility with the
    previous release of feat should be complete as long as only the submodules
    IFSeq and Enum were used. (Contributed by Jonah Beckford; reviewed and
    adapted by François Pottier.)

  • Avoid inadvertent uses of OCaml's polymorphic comparison operators on big
    integers.

  • Improved documentation.
