136 .IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
138 \& #include <openssl/bn.h>
140 \& int BN_zero(BIGNUM *a);
141 \& int BN_one(BIGNUM *a);
143 \& const BIGNUM *BN_value_one(void);
145 \& int BN_set_word(BIGNUM *a, unsigned long w);
146 \& unsigned long BN_get_word(BIGNUM *a);
149 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
150 \&\fIBN_zero()\fR, \fIBN_one()\fR and \fIBN_set_word()\fR set \fBa\fR to the values 0, 1 and
151 \&\fBw\fR respectively. \fIBN_zero()\fR and \fIBN_one()\fR are macros.
153 \&\fIBN_value_one()\fR returns a \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR constant of value 1. This constant
154 is useful for use in comparisons and assignment.
156 \&\fIBN_get_word()\fR returns \fBa\fR, if it can be represented as an unsigned
159 .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
160 \&\fIBN_get_word()\fR returns the value \fBa\fR, and 0xffffffffL if \fBa\fR cannot
161 be represented as an unsigned long.
163 \&\fIBN_zero()\fR, \fIBN_one()\fR and \fIBN_set_word()\fR return 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
164 \&\fIBN_value_one()\fR returns the constant.
167 Someone might change the constant.
169 If a \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR is equal to 0xffffffffL it can be represented as an
170 unsigned long but this value is also returned on error.
