NAME 
experimental.ops - Experimental Operations
DESCRIPTION
This file contains operations that are in an experimental state. Do not rely upon the existence of the ops in this file when writing production code. No decision has yet been made as to whether they are accepted as regular Parrot ops or not. They are included here for testing purposes only!
Mathematical operations
Implementations of various mathematical operations
- gcd(out INT, in NUM, in NUM)
- Greatest Common divisor of $2 and $3.
- gcd(out INT, out INT, out INT, in INT, in INT)
- Given $4 and $5, it calculates $1, $2 and $3 so that
- $1 = gcd($4, $5) = $2 * $4 + $3 * $5 (d = gcd(a,b) = x*a + y*b)
random number operations
Implementations of various random number operations
- rand(out NUM, in NUM)
- rand(out NUM)
- rand(out INT, in INT)
- rand(out INT)
- srand(in NUM)
- Generate random numbers based on the Random PMC.
