    Summary: Utilities related to prime numbers, using GMP
    Description: 
    A set of utilities related to prime numbers, using GMP.  This includes
    primality tests, getting primes in a range, and factoring.
    
    While it certainly can be used directly, the main purpose of this
    module is for the Math::Prime::Util manpage.  That module will automatically
    load this one if it is installed, greatly speeding up many of its
    operations on big numbers.
    
    Inputs and outputs for big numbers are via strings, so you do not need
    to use a bigint package in your program.  However if you do use bigints,
    inputs will be converted internally so there is no need to convert
    before a call.  Output results are returned as either Perl scalars
    (for native-size) or strings (for bigints).  the Math::Prime::Util manpage tries
    to reconvert all strings back into the callers bigint type if possible,
    which makes it more convenient for calculations.
    
    The various `is_*_pseudoprime' tests are more appropriately called
    `is_*_probable_prime' or `is_*_prp'.  They return 1 if the input is a
    probable prime based on their test.  The naming convention is historical
    and follows Pari, the Math::Primality manpage, and some other math packages.
    The modern definition of pseudoprime is a *composite* that passes the
    test, rather than any number.
