This library is a collection of generic algorithms and supporting utilities for performing analysis of Warren-Granlund-Montgomery style optimized integer divisions and other related problems, including formatting/parsing of integers and floating-point numbers. The project has started when I first discovered an algorithm for finding a triple $(k,m,s)$ of integers such that

$$ \left\lfloor nx \right\rfloor = \left\lfloor \frac{nm + s}{2^{k}} \right\rfloor $$

holds for all $n = 1,\ \cdots\ ,n_{\max}$, for given real number $x$ and a positive integer $n_{\max}$, which I described in my blog post. Since then, the algorithm has been continuously improved and generalized, and in particular I obtained an algorithm for computing the precise set of $(\xi,\zeta)\in\mathbb{R}^{2}$ satisfying

$$ \left\lfloor nx + y \right\rfloor = \left\lfloor n\xi + \zeta \right\rfloor $$

for all $n = n_{\min},\ \cdots\ ,n_{\max}$, for given real numbers $x,y$ and a range $\left\{n_{\min},\ \cdots\ ,n_{\max}\right\}$ of consecutive integers. More detailed explanation of what this is all about and how exactly the algorithm works can be found in this informal paper.
