Product: D Version: D2 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P1 Component: phobos Assignee: nobody puremagic.com Reporter: paul.d.anderson comcast.net Determining the number of decimal digits in a BigInt requires examination of the ulong/uint data. It would be useful to have a straightforward method of doing so. I recommend making the std.internal.math.biguintcore functions peekUlong and peekUint visible at the std.bigint level by adding the following functions to std.bigint: ulong ulongDigit(int n) pure nothrow const safe nogc { return data.peekUlong(n); } uint uintDigit(int n) pure nothrow const safe nogc { return data.peekUint(n); } I've readied a pull request to add these functions to std.bigint --
