Add pack and unpack methods. #42

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Sometimes it is helpful to consider an mpz as a sequence of M n-bit fields. I 
propose to add two methods to pack (unpack) an mpz/xmpz from (to) a length-M 
list consisting of positive number of length n or less.

When packing, an error will be raised if a value in the list is negative or has 
length greater than n. When unpacking, an error will be raised if the initial 
value is negative.
