java biginteger php_Is there a BigInteger class in PHP?

Even though this question is old, it comes up as first result when Googling for BigInteger PHP, so for anyone interested, I open-sourced a library called Brick\Math offering BigInteger, BigDecimal and BigRational classes.

Usage

use Brick\Math\BigInteger;

use Brick\Math\RoundingMode;

Addition:

echo BigInteger::of('9999999999999999999999999')->plus(1);

// 10000000000000000000000000

Subtraction:

echo BigInteger::of('10000000000000000000000000')->minus(1);

// 9999999999999999999999999

Multiplication:

echo BigInteger::of('3333333333333333333333333')->multipliedBy(11);

// 36666666666666666666666663

Division:

echo BigInteger::of('1000000000000000000000')->dividedBy(3, RoundingMode::UP);

// 333333333333333333334

Exponentiation:

echo BigInteger::of(11)->power(50);

// 11739085287969531650666649599035831993898213898723001

You can easily chain method calls:

echo BigInteger::of(3)->multipliedBy(7)->minus(1)->dividedBy(10);

Installation

Just install with Composer and you're done:

composer require brick/math

The library automatically uses the GMP and BCMath extensions when available, to speed up calculations, but will also work without them thanks to a pure PHP implementation.
