Hello; 
 
When doing long math on paper , you always forget about the decimal until the end ...
 
The only time you need to consider the decimal prior to computation is for L / R padding in ADD / SUB  , and left padding in SQRT 
Basically all math functions are integer..
 
 
Why does GMP use separate functions for int and float?
 
Just wondering..
