Allows use of arbitrary length integers, where the following apply to all methods, except as noted:
The object $i
remains unchanged.
Big integer strings (bints) have the form /^\s*[+-]?[\d\s]+$/
.
All methods except bcmp
return a big integer string or strings.
Embedded whitespace is ignored.
Output values are always in the canonical form: /^[+-]\d+$/
.
The return value NaN
results when an input argument is not a
number, or when a divide by zero is attempted.
