@storm5510 the function overloads the built-in mod operator for the bigint type, e.g. result = a mod b where the variables result, a and b are bigint exponent = bigint(2)^m_exp-1 that is correct, however if the number you want to use is longer than a signed 32-bit integer then you need to quote the ...

hello storm5510
you may want to check out this wrapper for gmp big integer viewtopic.php?f=7&t=25684

@storm5510
if you are assigning big numbers to a bigint variable, you must enclose the number in quotes, like:
a = "123456789199999999999999999999"
for numbers that fit in a long, you can do without the quotes

@storm5510 are you using "Big-Int overload.bi" ? No, I am not using "overload." I do not understand the meaning in this context. I am using big_int.bi . Result = (260198......182271 / ‭11225899906844061) mod ? This is going to take a lot more deep thought on my part... if you ar...

it seems that the function big_int_divmod does not work #include once "big_int/big_int_full.bi" dim as big_int ptr a, b, c, result dim status as long sub print_num (byval tpl as string, byval num as big_int ptr) dim as big_int_str ptr s s = big_int_str_create( 1 ) if( s = NULL ) then print...

@storm5510 are you using "Big-Int overload.bi" ? if so, in order to be consistent with that include you need to write a function like this function bigint_divmod (byref a As bigint, byref b As bigint, byref c As bigint) As bigint Dim As bigint result Dim status As Long status = big_int_div...

@RoWa
I have disappointing news for you, libzip has like half a dozen or more dependencies and it would take more know-how than what I got to build a static lib or even a DLL
one can install a static libzip in msys2 but the dependencies are still there

you need to either compile or download the library as suggested in my post above and place it in the lib\win64 folder

very nice D.J.Peters :-)
is it possible to support sound as in this example? https://www.shadertoy.com/view/XtlSD7

thank you St_W

Is anybody able to compile a static (!!!) library v1.5.2 using MinGW/MSYS for Win32 ?

probably could be done, but it's not as simple as configuring and making because it uses CMake.

also, it's possible that the input string has one or more spaces before UID in which the test fails, in that case, use if left(Ltrim(Content),3) = "UID" then

I am glad it's working for you
I mentioned the geany IDE because that's the one I am familiar with, but I think there's another cross-platform IDE called poseidon, you can find it the projects section

@storm5510 your way of installing FreeBasic and trying to make it work is unnecessarily complex, here's how I would do it install FB via the shell script: sudo sh install.sh -i then install the necessary libraries sudo apt-get install libncurses-dev sudo apt-get install libx11-dev sudo apt-get insta...

@storm5510
while the include is where fxm noted, the library is not included in the distribution but you can get the windows binary or build it yourself, see viewtopic.php?f=14&t=25082&p=224933#p224933
