# This example demonstrates solving linear systems of congruences
# with a unique solution, and how Math::ModInt::ChineseRemainder
# can be used to do most calculations with small moduli although
# the final result is given modulo a large number.
#
# A more general way of dealing with modular integer equation systems
# will be the topic of an upcoming extension module.
