Arithmetic calculation using SafeMath.sol

The SafeMath.sol library provides basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and modulo mathematical calculation functions that can be used in your contract.

library SafeMath {    function mul(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (uint256) {        if (a == 0) {            return 0;        }        uint256 c = a * b;        require(c / a == b);        return c;    }    function div(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (uint256) {                require(b > 0);        uint256 c = a / b;                return c;    }    function sub(uint256 a, uint256 b) internal pure returns (uint256) {        require(b <= a);        uint256 c = a - b;        return c;    }    function add(
