C++ class for integers of unlimited range

C++ class  cBigNumber  implements integers of unlimited range. Click to enlarge
The class provides for all regular operations of language C++, including arithmetic, logic and bitwise operations, operations of comparison, shift operations, and also stream input-output with all of integer modifiers. Extra functions - power, power by module, square root and Miller strong probable primality test.
The class uses fast algorithms, such as the binary exponentiation, optimized for numbers containing from 500 to 20,000 bits. More large numbers can also be used; the exponentiation tests were carried out for numbers containing up to 12,000,000 bits.

Test environments: Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0, 2002-2010, Borland C++ 3.1 (16 bit), 4.5, Builder 1.0, GNU g++ 2.9.6, 3.3.3 (ARM), 4.1.2 (64 bit), 4.2.3
