CasNum Library: Arbitrary Precision Arithmetic Using Compass and Straightedge Geometric Constructions
By
aebtebeten
Pure flour-power. Hearty enough to carry you through lunch.
Summary
CasNum is a unique software library that implements arbitrary precision arithmetic using compass and straightedge geometric constructions from Euclidean geometry. The project features a functional modified Game Boy emulator where every ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) opcode is implemented entirely through geometric constructions, demonstrating the practical application of classical geometric methods in modern computing.
