Multiplication Algorithms about uint128_t

[armchaircaver]

Surely Jason's code implements this via the operator overload starting in line 208 of uint128_t.cpp :
uint128_t uint128_t::operator*(const uint128_t & rhs) const{
...

By the way, you may be interested in the modified version of this operator overload that I wrote to solve a contest center puzzle, described in http://arthurvause.blogspot.co.uk/2017/05/three-pandigitals.html

I do long multiplication in uint128_t and uint256_t because these two types have fixed numbers of internal digits, and thus multiplication can be done in constant time. I have implemented long multiplication in integer, but it is relatively slow, when compared to other algorithms, which is why I have a list of commented out multiplication methods that are implemented but not used.

For modulo and divisions, have you tried Barrett? There’s also other method which combines Newton Inversion with Barrett’s algorithm (Newton Division), there’s an interesting paper here comparing algorithms: http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.111.9736&rep=rep1&type=pdf

Cool! Thanks! I'll get to it at some point.

I made a ton of additions/changes in https://github.com/Kronuz/uint_t lots of optimizations and quite a few algorithms

Nice!
