title: libwignernj
abstract: >-
  Exact evaluation of Wigner 3j, 6j, and 9j symbols, Clebsch-Gordan
  coefficients, Racah W-coefficients, Fano X-coefficients, and Gaunt
  coefficients in C99, with C++, Fortran 90, and Python bindings.  All
  intermediate arithmetic is exact integer arithmetic in a
  prime-factorization representation; floating-point conversion happens
  only at the final step, so results are correct to the last
  representable bit of the chosen output precision.
