+This function computes $c = a^b$.
+
+With parameter \textit{fast} set to $0$ the old version of the algorithm is used,
+when \textit{fast} is $1$, a faster but not statically timed version of the algorithm is used.
+
+The old version uses a simple binary left-to-right algorithm.
+It is faster than repeated multiplications by $a$ for all values of $b$ greater than three.
+
+The new version uses a binary right-to-left algorithm.
+
+The difference between the old and the new version is that the old version always
+executes $DIGIT\_BIT$ iterations. The new algorithm executes only $n$ iterations
+where $n$ is equal to the position of the highest bit that is set in $b$.

-This computes $c = a^b$ using a simple binary left-to-right algorithm.  It is faster than repeated multiplications by 
-$a$ for all values of $b$ greater than three.  
+mp\_expt\_d(a, b, c) is a wrapper function to mp\_expt\_d\_ex(a, b, c, 0).
