// COPY-LESS OPERATIONS

/*
 * On most calls to copy-less operations, it's safe to read the inputs little by
 * little and write the outputs little by little.  However, if one of the
 * inputs is coming from the same variable into which the output is to be
 * stored (an "aliased" call), we risk overwriting the input before we read it.
 * In this case, we first compute the result into a temporary BigUnsigned
 * variable and then copy it into the requested output variable *this.
 * Each put-here operation uses the DTRT_ALIASED macro (Do The Right Thing on
 * aliased calls) to generate code for this check.
 * 
 * I adopted this approach on 2007.02.13 (see Assignment Operators in
 * BigUnsigned.hh).  Before then, put-here operations rejected aliased calls
 * with an exception.  I think doing the right thing is better.
 * 
 * Some of the put-here operations can probably handle aliased calls safely
 * without the extra copy because (for example) they process blocks strictly
 * right-to-left.  At some point I might determine which ones don't need the
 * copy, but my reasoning would need to be verified very carefully.  For now
 * I'll leave in the copy.

 * About the multiplication and division algorithms:
 *
 * I searched unsucessfully for fast C++ built-in operations like the `b_0'
 * and `c_0' Knuth describes in Section 4.3.1 of ``The Art of Computer
 * Programming'' (replace `place' by `Blk'):
 *
 *    ``b_0[:] multiplication of a one-place integer by another one-place
 *      integer, giving a two-place answer;
 *
 *    ``c_0[:] division of a two-place integer by a one-place integer,
 *      provided that the quotient is a one-place integer, and yielding
 *      also a one-place remainder.''
 *
 * I also missed his note that ``[b]y adjusting the word size, if
 * necessary, nearly all computers will have these three operations
 * available'', so I gave up on trying to use algorithms similar to his.
 * A future version of the library might include such algorithms; I
 * would welcome contributions from others for this.
 *
 * I eventually decided to use bit-shifting algorithms.  To multiply `a'
 * and `b', we zero out the result.  Then, for each `1' bit in `a', we
 * shift `b' left the appropriate amount and add it to the result.
 * Similarly, to divide `a' by `b', we shift `b' left varying amounts,
 * repeatedly trying to subtract it from `a'.  When we succeed, we note
 * the fact by setting a bit in the quotient.  While these algorithms
 * have the same O(n^2) time complexity as Knuth's, the ``constant factor''
 * is likely to be larger.
 *
 * Because I used these algorithms, which require single-block addition
 * and subtraction rather than single-block multiplication and division,
 * the innermost loops of all four routines are very similar.  Study one
 * of them and all will become clear.

 * This is a little inline function used by both the multiplication

 * `getShiftedBlock' returns the `x'th block of `num << y'.

 * Two things contribute to this block:
 *
 * (1) The `N - y' low bits of `num.blk[x]', shifted `y' bits left.
 *
