Sep 1, 2025September 2025 focused on delivering business-value through a full API modernization, performance improvements, and expanded algorithm coverage, while strengthening build hygiene and testing. The codebase was modularized with unified versions and clearer API surfaces, including explicit constructors and reorganized headers, enabling safer future changes and faster onboarding. We introduced Finite State Automata (FSA) support, non-recursive algorithm implementations, and a new series with global precision control, broadening the algorithmic capabilities and precision guarantees. Performance optimizations, such as refactored L algorithm with a substantial runtime reduction (from minutes to tens of seconds) and targeted numerical stability tweaks, delivered measurable production speedups. Build hygiene improvements (gitignore, cleanup passes), VSCode local dev config, and testing scaffolding reduced CI friction and improved developer experience. Several bug fixes and stability improvements ensured API compatibility across enum changes and validated fixes with final pass results.
