FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Mathematician

Build Status Total Downloads Latest Stable Version

Mathematician is a PHP mathematics library for simpler, more reliable math operations... even on big numbers.

Face it: working with numbers in PHP is sub-par. This library aims to change that. The design goal of this library is to make it easier to work with numbers, regardless of size/precision or what extension the system has loaded. Portability and ease of use.

Why?

Why create or even use a library like this? Well, working with numbers in PHP is quite the struggle.

Unlike many languages (Python, Ruby, etc), when dividing an integer by an integer you get a result that is of the type: float. In fact, there's actually no // operation like there is in JavaScript to do integer division.

Not only that, but what happens when you want to work with numbers that are larger than PHP_INT_MAX? When adding 1 to PHP_INT_MAX... you get a float again. Which means you instantly lose precision. Try to cast it back to an integer and you'll get a negative number (thanks overflow). Its rough... so naturally you turn to one of two extensions for working with big numbers: bcmath or gmp. Well, now your application/library is dependent on a compiled extension and is less portable, not to mention that they aren't equal in functionality (have fun with binary operations in BC Math).

Anyway, I think you get the point here. This library was born out of my frustrations with the above. Hopefully this library eases the pain for you so you don't have to experience what I did. :P
