Math/BigInt/FastCalc

This is a replacement library for Math::BigInt::Calc that reimplements some of the Calc functions in XS. It can be used via:

use Math::BigInt lib => 'FastCalc';

This is always safe to use, since:

• FastCalc is always faster than Calc, or equal in speed, it will be never slower
• if FastCalc is not installed, Math::BigInt will automatically use Calc.

Of course, it also works with Math::BigFloat

use Math::BigFloat lib => 'FastCalc';

or even Math::BigRat:

use Math::BigRat lib => 'FastCalc';

Please have fun!
