Summary description: Knuth multiplication and Zeckendorf representations of big integers
Announcement text:
This package adds to \xintiieval’s syntax the $ character as infix operator computing the Knuth multiplication of positive integers. It adds functions to this syntax, as well as macros for use without it, to work with Fibonacci numbers and Zeckendorf representations. It can be used either as a LaTeX package, or with Plain eTeX, or on the command line in an interactive session using eTeX. Being based upon xintexpr, it allows to compute with "arbitrarily" big integers.
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/generic/zeckendorf More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/zeckendorf
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Erik Braun

zeckendorf – Knuth Fibonacci multiplication, Zeckendorf and Bergman representations of big integers
This package extends the \xinteval syntax to do algebra in Q(phi) (where phi is the golden ratio), and compute Fibonacci numbers, Zeckendorf representations of positive integers and Bergman phi-representations of the positive elements of Z[phi]. The $ character is used to compute the Knuth Fibonacci multiplication.
The package can be used either in a LaTeX document, or with Plain ε-TeX, or on the command line in an interactive session using ε-TeX.
Being based upon xintexpr, it allows to compute with “arbitrarily” big integers, the reasonable use being with integers of at most a few hundreds of digits.
