TruncateablePrimes

TruncateablePrimes is a project designed to calculate left and right truncatable primes in C++.

Cloning

Since this repo is recursive, you need to clone it recursively

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/BrainStone/TruncateablePrimes.git

If you forgot to do that, you can download the submodules later by running

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

Hooks

This repo also provides a few simple hooks to make working with submodules easier. While it is not necessary to do this step, it is recommended.

$ cp -va .hooks/* .git/hooks/

Building

This project uses gradle for building. The nice thing about gradle is that you only need to have Java (and a C++ compiler of your choice) installed.
Building is super straight forward:

$ ./gradlew build

This will build the project and all its dependencies.

Compiler version

For this project to build properly, you need an up to date version of your compiler:

Compiler	Required Version
Clang	3.4+
GCC	5+ (4.9 might work)
Visual Studio	2015+

(If you find that it compiles on different versions than stated here, open an issue stating on which compiler version it compiled successfully. (Including the tests!))

MPIR

This program depends on the MPIR library (libmpir) and its C++ Wrapper (libmpirxx). Due to the complexity I cannot include MPIR here directly.

You sadly need to build it yourself. Downloads can be found here: http://mpir.org/downloads.html
Be sure to use the version 3.0.0. Building instructions can be found in the documentation.

In general you have three options:

• Recommended (for Unix): Run the provided ./build-mpir.sh script.
  For most cases the invocation ./build-mpir.sh -t is the best choice.
  Run ./build-mpir.sh -h to get an overview and explanation of all flags.
• Install it system wide. The library files should be in /usr/local/lib/ (Unix only)
• Provide the files yourself:
  • Put the mpir.h and mpirxx.h in the lib/mpir/include dir
  • Put the library files in the lib/mpir/lib dir (libmpir.a and libmpirxx.a on Linux and OSX, mpir.lib and mpirxx.lib on Windows)

Documentation

This project comes with a Doxyfile. You can either generate the documentation manually by using Doxygen from the command line, or by running this gradle task:

$ ./gradlew doc
