(PHP 5)
bcpowmod — Raise an arbitrary precision number to another, reduced by a specified modulus
$left_operand
, string $right_operand
, string $modulus
[, int $scale
] )
Use the fast-exponentiation method to raise
left_operand
to the power
right_operand
with respect to the modulus
modulus
.
left_operand
The left operand, as a string.
right_operand
The right operand, as a string.
modulus
The modulus, as a string.
scale
此可选参数用于设置结果中小数点后的小数位数。也可通过使用 bcscale() 来设置全局默认的小数位数,用于所有函数。
Returns the result as a string, or NULL
if modulus
is 0.
Note:
Because this method uses the modulus operation, numbers which are not positive integers may give unexpected results.
The following two statements are functionally identical. The bcpowmod() version however, executes in less time and can accept larger parameters.
<?php
$a = bcpowmod($x, $y, $mod);
$b = bcmod(bcpow($x, $y), $mod);
// $a and $b are equal to each other.
?>
