For interest, the GMP types mpz_t etc are implemented as one-element arrays of certain structures. This is why declaring a variable creates an object with the fields GMP needs, but then using it as a parameter passes a pointer to the object. Note that the actual fields in each mpz_t etc are for internal use only and should not be accessed directly by code that expects to be compatible with future GMP releases.

     foo (mpz_t result, const mpz_t param, unsigned long n)

       unsigned long  i;
       mpz_mul_ui (result, param, n);
       for (i = 1; i < n; i++)
         mpz_add_ui (result, result, i*7);
     }
