Math-Prime-Util-0.38

Changes for version 0.38 - 2014-02-28

ADDED
- is_power Returns max k if n=p^k. See Pari 2.4.x.
FUNCTIONALITY AND PERFORMANCE
- Factoring powers (and k*n^m for small k) is much faster.
- Speed up znprimroot.
- Add Bernstein+Voloch improvements to AKS. Much faster than the v6 implementation, though still terribly slow vs. BPSW or other proofs.
OTHER
- Added some Project Euler examples.
- If using a threaded Perl without EXTENDED_TESTING, thread tests will print diagnostics instead of failing. This might help find issues with platforms that are currently failing with no indications, and allow installation for non-threaded use.
