/* LibTomMath, multiple-precision integer library -- Tom St Denis
*
* LibTomMath is a library that provides multiple-precision
* integer arithmetic as well as number theoretic functionality.
*
* The library was designed directly after the MPI library by
* Michael Fromberger but has been written from scratch with
* additional optimizations in place.
*
* The library is free for all purposes without any express
* guarantee it works.

*
* If "a" were prime then b**a == b (mod a) since the order of
* the multiplicative sub-group would be phi(a) = a-1. That means
* it would be the same as b**(a mod (a-1)) == b**1 == b (mod a).
*
* Sets result to 1 if the congruence holds, or zero otherwise.
