lexical-write-integer 1.0.6

Efficient formatting of integers to strings.
Documentation
//! Radix-generic, optimized, integer-to-string conversion routines.
//!
//! These routines are highly optimized: they unroll 4 loops at a time,
//! using pre-computed base^2 tables. This was popularized by Andrei
//! Alexandrescu, and uses 2 digits per division, which we further optimize in
//! up to 4 digits per division with a bit shift.
//!
//! See [Algorithm](/docs/Algorithm.md) for a more detailed description of
//! the algorithm choice here. See [Benchmarks](/docs/Benchmarks.md) for
//! recent benchmark data.
