Assigning Integers (GNU MP 6.3.0)
Description: How to install and use the GNU multiple precision arithmetic library, version 6.3.0.

### 5.2 Assignment Functions ¶

These functions assign new values to already initialized integers (see Initialization Functions).

Function: `void` mpz_set `(mpz_t rop, const mpz_t op)` ¶
Function: `void` mpz_set_ui `(mpz_t rop, unsigned long int op)` ¶
Function: `void` mpz_set_si `(mpz_t rop, signed long int op)` ¶
Function: `void` mpz_set_d `(mpz_t rop, double op)` ¶
Function: `void` mpz_set_q `(mpz_t rop, const mpq_t op)` ¶
Function: `void` mpz_set_f `(mpz_t rop, const mpf_t op)` ¶

  Set the value of rop from op.

  `mpz_set_d`, `mpz_set_q` and `mpz_set_f` truncate op to make it an integer.

Function: `int` mpz_set_str `(mpz_t rop, const char *str, int base)` ¶

  Set the value of rop from str, a null-terminated C string in base base. White space is allowed in the string, and is simply ignored.

  The base may vary from 2 to 62, or if base is 0, then the leading characters are used: `0x` and `0X` for hexadecimal, `0b` and `0B` for binary, `0` for octal, or decimal otherwise.

  For bases up to 36, case is ignored; upper-case and lower-case letters have the same value. For bases 37 to 62, upper-case letters represent the usual 10..35 while lower-case letters represent 36..61.

  This function returns 0 if the entire string is a valid number in base base. Otherwise it returns −1.

Function: `void` mpz_swap `(mpz_t rop1, mpz_t rop2)` ¶

  Swap the values rop1 and rop2 efficiently.
