=head1 BUGS

Please notify the author if you encounter any bugs.  When sending email, please place
the string 'BitVector' in the subject line.

=head1 INSTALLATION

Download the archive from CPAN in any directory of your choice.  Unpack the archive
with a command that on a Linux machine would look like:

    tar zxvf Algorithm-BitVector-1.26.tar.gz

This will create an installation directory for you whose name will be
C<Algorithm-BitVector-1.26>.  Enter this directory and execute the following commands
for a standard install of the module if you have root privileges:

    perl Makefile.PL
    make
    make test
    sudo make install

If you do not have root privileges, you can carry out a non-standard install the
module in any directory of your choice by:

    perl Makefile.PL prefix=/some/other/directory/
    make
    make test
    make install

With a non-standard install, you may also have to set your PERL5LIB environment
variable so that this module can find the required other modules. How you do that
would depend on what platform you are working on.  In order to install this module in
a Linux machine on which I use tcsh for the shell, I set the PERL5LIB environment
variable by

    setenv PERL5LIB /some/other/directory/lib64/perl5/:/some/other/directory/share/perl5/

If I used bash, I'd need to declare:

    export PERL5LIB=/some/other/directory/lib64/perl5/:/some/other/directory/share/perl5/


=head1 THANKS

The bug in the primality test function, whose fix resulted in Version 1.21, was
reported by Dana Jacobsen in a bug report filed at C<rt.cpan.org>.  Thanks Dana!

The restriction on the Perl version was removed on Slaven Rezic's recommendation.  He
says the module runs fine with Perl 5.8.9.  Thanks Slaven!

Austin Nobis reported a documentation error in Version 1.24 which was fixed in Version
1.25.  Thanks Austin!
