CTAN update: xint
Breaking: - iterated powers (** or ^) computed from right to left - removal of deprecated single-character operators &, |, and = Deprecated: - old "typesetting" macros \xintFrac et al. have been renamed into \xintTeXFrac, etc... and former names will emit warnings New: - \xintTeXfromSci - new mechanism for error messages raised by exceptions; when in interactive mode, dialog with user in only one step, not three Bugfixes: - \xinteval{_4} caused an infinite loop - ... other bugfixes, see CHANGES.html for details

Xint – Expandable arbitrary precision floating point and integer operations
The calx package and its superset the xintexpr package provide:
- \calxeval: numerical expression parser for floating-point computations.
- \calxinteval: numerical expression parser for computations with big integers.
Floating-point computations are supported up to 100 significant digits of precision. A full set of trigonometric, logarithmic, and exponential functions is implemented.
The two parsers are also available under their legacy names \xintfloateval and \xintiieval, respectively.
Loading xintexpr automatically loads calx and provides a third parser, \xinteval, which handles fractions. It also loads the legacy macro interface packages xintcore, xint, and xintfrac.
All three parsers produce their results by expansion alone. They accept comma-separated inputs and nested structures using square brackets. Users can define custom variables and functions.
