/* LibTomMath, multiple-precision integer library -- Tom St Denis
*
* LibTomMath is a library that provides multiple-precision
* integer arithmetic as well as number theoretic functionality.
*
* The library was designed directly after the MPI library by
* Michael Fromberger but has been written from scratch with
* additional optimizations in place.
*
* The library is free for all purposes without any express
* guarantee it works.

/* calculates a = B^n mod b for Montgomery reduction
* Where B is the base [e.g. 2^DIGIT_BIT].
* B^n mod b is computed by first computing
* A = B^(n-1) which doesn't require a reduction but a simple OR.
* then C = A * B = B^n is computed by performing upto DIGIT_BIT
* shifts with subtractions when the result is greater than b.
*
* The method is slightly modified to shift B unconditionally upto just under
* the leading bit of b. This saves alot of multiple precision shifting.
