26 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
27 | ||
28 | BN_zero(), BN_one() and BN_set_word() set B<a> to the values 0, 1 and | |
29 | B<w> respectively. BN_zero() and BN_one() are macros. | |
30 | ||
31 | BN_value_one() returns a B<BIGNUM> constant of value 1. This constant | |
32 | is useful for use in comparisons and assignment. | |
33 | ||
34 | BN_get_word() returns B<a>, if it can be represented as an unsigned | |
35 | long. | |
36 | ||
37 | =head1 RETURN VALUES | |
38 | ||
39 | BN_get_word() returns the value B<a>, and 0xffffffffL if B<a> cannot | |
40 | be represented as an unsigned long. | |
41 | ||
98186eb4 VD |
42 | BN_one(), BN_set_word() and the deprecated version of BN_zero() |
43 | return 1 on success, 0 otherwise. | |
dd8dec69 | 44 | BN_value_one() returns the constant. |
6c1f368d | 45 | The preferred version of BN_zero() never fails and returns no value. |

47 | =head1 BUGS | |
48 | ||
49 | Someone might change the constant. | |

51 | If a B<BIGNUM> is equal to 0xffffffffL it can be represented as an |
52 | unsigned long but this value is also returned on error. | |
