/**
 * Immutable arbitrary-precision integers.  All operations behave as if
 * BigIntegers were represented in two's-complement notation (like Java's
 * primitive integer types).  BigInteger provides analogues to all of Java's
 * primitive integer operators, and all relevant methods from java.lang.Math.
 * Additionally, BigInteger provides operations for modular arithmetic, GCD
 * calculation, primality testing, prime generation, bit manipulation,
 * and a few other miscellaneous operations.
 *
 * <p>Semantics of arithmetic operations exactly mimic those of Java's integer
 * arithmetic operators, as defined in <i>The Java Language Specification</i>.
 * For example, division by zero throws an {@code ArithmeticException}, and
 * division of a negative by a positive yields a negative (or zero) remainder.
 * All of the details in the Spec concerning overflow are ignored, as
 * BigIntegers are made as large as necessary to accommodate the results of an
 * operation.
 *
 * <p>Semantics of shift operations extend those of Java's shift operators
 * to allow for negative shift distances.  A right-shift with a negative
 * shift distance results in a left shift, and vice-versa.  The unsigned
 * right shift operator ({@code >>>}) is omitted, as this operation makes
 * little sense in combination with the "infinite word size" abstraction
 * provided by this class.
 *
 * <p>Semantics of bitwise logical operations exactly mimic those of Java's
 * bitwise integer operators.  The binary operators ({@code and},
 * {@code or}, {@code xor}) implicitly perform sign extension on the shorter
 * of the two operands prior to performing the operation.
 *
 * <p>Comparison operations perform signed integer comparisons, analogous to
 * those performed by Java's relational and equality operators.
 *
 * <p>Modular arithmetic operations are provided to compute residues, perform
 * exponentiation, and compute multiplicative inverses.  These methods always
 * return a non-negative result, between {@code 0} and {@code (modulus - 1)},
 * inclusive.
 *
 * <p>Bit operations operate on a single bit of the two's-complement
 * representation of their operand.  If necessary, the operand is sign-
 * extended so that it contains the designated bit.  None of the single-bit
 * operations can produce a BigInteger with a different sign from the
 * BigInteger being operated on, as they affect only a single bit, and the
 * "infinite word size" abstraction provided by this class ensures that there
 * are infinitely many "virtual sign bits" preceding each BigInteger.
 *
 * <p>For the sake of brevity and clarity, pseudo-code is used throughout the
 * descriptions of BigInteger methods.  The pseudo-code expression
 * {@code (i + j)} is shorthand for "a BigInteger whose value is
 * that of the BigInteger {@code i} plus that of the BigInteger {@code j}."
 * The pseudo-code expression {@code (i == j)} is shorthand for
 * "{@code true} if and only if the BigInteger {@code i} represents the same
 * value as the BigInteger {@code j}."  Other pseudo-code expressions are
 * interpreted similarly.
 *
 * <p>All methods and constructors in this class throw
 * {@code NullPointerException} when passed
 * a null object reference for any input parameter.
 *
 * BigInteger must support values in the range
 * -2<sup>{@code Integer.MAX_VALUE}</sup> (exclusive) to
 * +2<sup>{@code Integer.MAX_VALUE}</sup> (exclusive)
 * and may support values outside of that range.
 *
 * The range of probable prime values is limited and may be less than
 * the full supported positive range of {@code BigInteger}.
 * The range must be at least 1 to 2<sup>500000000</sup>.
 *
 * @implNote
 * BigInteger constructors and operations throw {@code ArithmeticException} when
 * the result is out of the supported range of
 * -2<sup>{@code Integer.MAX_VALUE}</sup> (exclusive) to
 * +2<sup>{@code Integer.MAX_VALUE}</sup> (exclusive).

     * The window algorithm:
     * The idea is to keep a running product of b1 = n^(high-order bits of exp)
     * and then keep appending exponent bits to it.  The following patterns
     * apply to a 3-bit window (k = 3):
     * To append   0: square
     * To append   1: square, multiply by n^1
     * To append  10: square, multiply by n^1, square
     * To append  11: square, square, multiply by n^3
     * To append 100: square, multiply by n^1, square, square
     * To append 101: square, square, square, multiply by n^5
     * To append 110: square, square, multiply by n^3, square
     * To append 111: square, square, square, multiply by n^7
     *
     * Since each pattern involves only one multiply, the longer the pattern
     * the better, except that a 0 (no multiplies) can be appended directly.
     * We precompute a table of odd powers of n, up to 2^k, and can then
     * multiply k bits of exponent at a time.  Actually, assuming random
     * exponents, there is on average one zero bit between needs to
     * multiply (1/2 of the time there's none, 1/4 of the time there's 1,
     * 1/8 of the time, there's 2, 1/32 of the time, there's 3, etc.), so
     * you have to do one multiply per k+1 bits of exponent.
     *
     * The loop walks down the exponent, squaring the result buffer as
     * it goes.  There is a wbits+1 bit lookahead buffer, buf, that is
     * filled with the upcoming exponent bits.  (What is read after the
     * end of the exponent is unimportant, but it is filled with zero here.)
     * When the most-significant bit of this buffer becomes set, i.e.
     * (buf & tblmask) != 0, we have to decide what pattern to multiply
     * by, and when to do it.  We decide, remember to do it in future
     * after a suitable number of squarings have passed (e.g. a pattern
     * of "100" in the buffer requires that we multiply by n^1 immediately;
     * a pattern of "110" calls for multiplying by n^3 after one more
     * squaring), clear the buffer, and continue.
     *
     * When we start, there is one more optimization: the result buffer
     * is implcitly one, so squaring it or multiplying by it can be
     * optimized away.  Further, if we start with a pattern like "100"
     * in the lookahead window, rather than placing n into the buffer
     * and then starting to square it, we have already computed n^2
     * to compute the odd-powers table, so we can place that into
     * the buffer and save a squaring.
     *
     * This means that if you have a k-bit window, to compute n^z,
     * where z is the high k bits of the exponent, 1/2 of the time
     * it requires no squarings.  1/4 of the time, it requires 1
     * squaring, ... 1/2^(k-1) of the time, it reqires k-2 squarings.
     * And the remaining 1/2^(k-1) of the time, the top k bits are a
     * 1 followed by k-1 0 bits, so it again only requires k-2
     * squarings, not k-1.  The average of these is 1.  Add that
     * to the one squaring we have to do to compute the table,
     * and you'll see that a k-bit window saves k-2 squarings
     * as well as reducing the multiplies.  (It actually doesn't
     * hurt in the case k = 1, either.)
