<p>BN_zero, BN_one, BN_value_one, BN_set_word, BN_get_word - BIGNUM assignment operations</p>

<h1 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h1>

<pre><code> #include &lt;openssl/bn.h&gt;

void BN_zero(BIGNUM *a);
 int BN_one(BIGNUM *a);

const BIGNUM *BN_value_one(void);

int BN_set_word(BIGNUM *a, BN_ULONG w);
 unsigned BN_ULONG BN_get_word(BIGNUM *a);</code></pre>

<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>

<p><b>BN_ULONG</b> is a macro that will be an unsigned integral type optimized for the most efficient implementation on the local platform.</p>

<p>BN_zero(), BN_one() and BN_set_word() set <b>a</b> to the values 0, 1 and <b>w</b> respectively. BN_zero() and BN_one() are macros.</p>

<p>BN_value_one() returns a <b>BIGNUM</b> constant of value 1. This constant is useful for use in comparisons and assignment.</p>

<p>BN_get_word() returns <b>a</b>, if it can be represented as a <b>BN_ULONG</b>.</p>

<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>

<p>BN_get_word() returns the value <b>a</b>, or all-bits-set if <b>a</b> cannot be represented as a single integer.</p>

<p>BN_one() and BN_set_word() return 1 on success, 0 otherwise. BN_value_one() returns the constant. BN_zero() never fails and returns no value.</p>

<p>If a <b>BIGNUM</b> is equal to the value of all-bits-set, it will collide with the error condition returned by BN_get_word() which uses that as an error value.</p>

<p><b>BN_ULONG</b> should probably be a typedef.</p>

<h1 id="HISTORY">HISTORY</h1>

<p>In OpenSSL 0.9.8, BN_zero() was changed to not return a value; previous versions returned an int.</p>
