Fixed

• #34 fixes the docblock for Rand::getFloat to indicate that the bottom boundary can include 0.

• #36 removes all references to ircmaxell/random-lib from the component. While it was no longer used internally, references still existed that caused confusion for some users.

Added

• #31 adds support for PHP 7.1 and 7.2.

Changed

• #33 modifies the Bcmath BigInteger class to no longer change the global bcscale, but instead send the 0 scale value explicitly to each bcmath operation. This prevents side effects when using bcmath in other scenarios.

• #29 modifies how caught exceptions are re-thrown; all such cases now provide the original exception as the previous exception.

Deprecated

• Nothing.

Removed

• #31 removes support for PHP 5.5.

• #31 removes support for HHVM.

Fixed

This version contains a number of changes to required dependencies, error handling, and internals; please read the migration document for full details.

Added

• #18 adds a requirement on ext/mbstring.
• #18 adds a requirement on paragonie/random_compat for polyfilling PHP 7's random_bytes() and random_int() functionality.
• #20 prepares and publishes documentation to https://zendframework.github.io/zend-math/

Deprecated

• Nothing.

Removed

• #18 removes the $strong optional parameter from the following methods, as the component now ensures a cryptographically secure pseudo-random number generator is always used:
  • Rand::getBytes($length)
  • Rand::getBoolean()
  • Rand::getInteger($min, $max)
  • Rand::getFloat()
  • Rand::getString($length, $charlist = null)
• #18 removes the requirement on ircmaxell/random-lib, in favor of paragonie/random_compat (as noted above); this also resulted in the removal of:
  • direct usage of mcrypt (this is delegated to paragonie/random_compat)
  • direct usage of /dev/urandom or COM (this is delegated to random_bytes() and/or paragonie/random_compat)
  • Zend\Math\Source\HashTiming, as it was used only with RandomLib.

Fixed

• #18 updates the code to replace usage of substr() and strlen() with mb_substr() and mb_strlen(); these ensure that all string manipulations within the component remain binary safe.

Added

• Nothing.

Deprecated

• Nothing.

Removed

• Nothing.

Fixed

• #16 updates Zend\Math\Rand to use PHP 7's random_bytes() and random_int() or mcrypt when detected, and fallback to ircmaxell/RandomLib otherwise, instead of using openssl. This provides more cryptographically secure pseudo-random generation.

Added

• Nothing.

Deprecated

• Nothing.

Removed

• #5 removes Zend\Math\BigInteger\AdapterPluginManager, and thus the zend-servicemanager dependency. Essentially, no other possible plugins are likely to ever be needed outside of those shipped with the component, so using a plugin manager was overkill. The functionality for loading the two shipped adapters has been

Deprecated

Removed

Fixed

• #7 fixes how base conversions are accomplished within the bcmath adapter, ensuring PHP's native base_convert() is used for base36 and below, while continuing to use the base62 alphabet for anything above.
