Crate balanced_ternary

A balanced ternary data structure.

A Ternary object in this module represents a number in the balanced ternary numeral system. Balanced ternary is a non-standard positional numeral system that uses three digits: {-1, 0, +1} represented here as Neg for -1, Zero for 0, and Pos for +1. It is useful in some domains of computer science and mathematics due to its arithmetic properties and representation symmetry.

Data Structures

• Digit Enum: Represents a single digit for balanced ternary values, with possible values:
  • Neg for -1
  • Zero for 0
  • Pos for +1

Structs

Ternary

Represents a balanced ternary number using a sequence of Digits.

Functions

ter
