* @brief Separates digits from numbers in forward and reverse order
* @see https://www.log2base2.com/c-examples/loop/split-a-number-into-digits-in-c.html
* @details The DigitSeparation class provides two methods to separate the
* digits of large integers: digitSeparationReverseOrder and
* digitSeparationForwardOrder. The digitSeparationReverseOrder method extracts
* digits by repeatedly applying the modulus operation (% 10) to isolate the
* last digit, then divides the number by 10 to remove it. This process
* continues until the entire number is broken down into its digits, which are
* stored in reverse order. If the number is zero, the method directly returns a
* vector containing {0} to handle this edge case. Negative numbers are handled
* by taking the absolute value, ensuring consistent behavior regardless of the
* sign.
