148 .IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
150 \& #include <openssl/bn.h>
152 \& int BN_zero(BIGNUM *a);
153 \& int BN_one(BIGNUM *a);
155 \& const BIGNUM *BN_value_one(void);
157 \& int BN_set_word(BIGNUM *a, unsigned long w);
158 \& unsigned long BN_get_word(BIGNUM *a);
161 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
162 \&\fIBN_zero()\fR, \fIBN_one()\fR and \fIBN_set_word()\fR set \fBa\fR to the values 0, 1 and
163 \&\fBw\fR respectively. \fIBN_zero()\fR and \fIBN_one()\fR are macros.
165 \&\fIBN_value_one()\fR returns a \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR constant of value 1. This constant
166 is useful for use in comparisons and assignment.
168 \&\fIBN_get_word()\fR returns \fBa\fR, if it can be represented as an unsigned
171 .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
172 \&\fIBN_get_word()\fR returns the value \fBa\fR, and 0xffffffffL if \fBa\fR cannot
173 be represented as an unsigned long.
175 \&\fIBN_zero()\fR, \fIBN_one()\fR and \fIBN_set_word()\fR return 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
176 \&\fIBN_value_one()\fR returns the constant.
179 Someone might change the constant.
181 If a \fB\s-1BIGNUM\s0\fR is equal to 0xffffffffL it can be represented as an
182 unsigned long but this value is also returned on error.

189 SSLeay and OpenSSL. \fIBN_value_one()\fR and \fIBN_get_word()\fR were added in
192 \&\fIBN_value_one()\fR was changed to return a true const \s-1BIGNUM\s0 * in OpenSSL
