It is widely used in number theory, though this teaching version is not constant time. // // METHOD // Reduce the base, then process exponent bits by squaring. Multiply the result on odd bits // and reduce after each product. // // COMPLEXITY // O(log exponent) modular multiplications, O(1) auxiliary space. // // CONTRACT // base and exponent are nonnegative, modulus > 0. Products of two residues must fit the // integer type; this is not a cryptographic implementation. // Public APIs infer array lengths except in C, which accepts pointer/length pairs. Vertex // counts and matrix dimensions remain explicit. Arrays must contain signed 32-bit integers. // Sorted order, correct tree topology, and caller-owned data-structure invariants are // preconditions; checking them on every query would change query complexity. // Scalar and shape checks are included. Value-range checks are included where needed to // prevent invalid indexing or nontermination. Allocation sizes are capped at 4,000,000 // workspace entries. Arithmetic outside Python raises an error on 32-bit overflow; Python // uses arbitrary precision. Native allocation failures propagate. In-place outputs may be // partly updated after arithmetic failure. These are single-threaded, in-memory // implementations. // // LANGUAGE DETAILS // Node.js 18+: Int32Array inputs and workspaces provide compact integer storage. Automatic // lengths and checked arithmetic reject values outside signed 32-bit. Invalid inputs or // overflow throw RangeError. // // EXAMPLE // Expected return: 24. // Run: node example.js // Tests for this exact source artifact run before publication. The accompanying source // archive includes unit cases, runtime results, and source hashes. function alg_require(valid) { if (!valid) throw new RangeError("invalid algorithm input"); } function alg_checked(v) { if (!Number.isInteger(v) || v < -2147483648 || v > 2147483647) throw new RangeError("32-bit result overflow"); return v; } function alg_add(a,b) { return alg_checked(a+b); } function alg_sub(a,b) { return alg_checked(a-b); } function alg_mul(a,b) { return alg_checked(a*b); } function alg_size(n) { alg_require(Number.isInteger(n) && n>=0 && n<=4000000); return n; } function modular_power(base, exponent, modulus) { alg_require(Number.isInteger(base) && base >= -2147483648 && base <= 2147483647); alg_require(Number.isInteger(exponent) && exponent >= -2147483648 && exponent <= 2147483647); alg_require(Number.isInteger(modulus) && modulus >= -2147483648 && modulus <= 2147483647); alg_require(((base >= 0) && (exponent >= 0) && (modulus > 0) && (modulus <= 46340))); let result = (1 % modulus); base = (base % modulus); while ((exponent > 0)) { if (((exponent % 2) == 1)) { result = (alg_mul(result, base) % modulus); } base = (alg_mul(base, base) % modulus); exponent = Math.floor(exponent / 2); } return result; } let base = 2; let exponent = 10; let modulus = 1000; let result = modular_power(base, exponent, modulus); console.log(result); |
