Dear Ian,

Sorry, I was little bit short, the OESIS sequence only gives the max. number of multiplications needed,
in the code that's what one has to achieve.

It's a long time I looked into it. As far as I understand my old code, I used a general template for the generic
squaring and addition approach (from boost::math), and an explicit implementation whenever there is a shorter path.

If you want I can try to document it a little bit and post it, but it's really not sophisticated.

Best regards,
Peter
