Dear GMP developers,
According to the documentation for mpz_set_str, "White space is allowed in
the string, and is simply ignored". Indeed,
mpz_set_str(x, "-12 3", 10)
works.
However, mpz_set_str returns that the string is invalid when a space
appears between the minus sign and the first digit. For example,
mpz_set_str(x, "- 123", 10)
does not work.
Fredrik
