Overview 📖

Common (CMN) is a modern, fast, and user-friendly library that makes it easy to access a wide range of mathematical and cryptographic constants.

Features ✨

The Common (CMN) uses the serde crate to serialize and deserialize the data.

The library has three modules:

  • Macros: This module contains functions for generating macros that can be used to access the constants and words.
  • Constants: This module contains the Constants structure, which provides a collection of constant values that are used throughout the library.
  • Words: This module contains the Words structure, which provides a collection of words that are used throughout the library.

Mathematical and Cryptographic Constants

The following table lists the most important mathematical and cryptographic constants available in the Common (CMN) library:

Constants Description Example
