Hello all, newcomer here :) Do any of you guys know much about/have an interest in long integer arithmetic algorithms (code for handling *huge* numbers exactly)? I have written some, and found Euphoria great for getting around the memory problems associated with 1,000,000 digit numbers, but I feel I used too many brute force approaches in the code, mostly out of ignorance. I am new to long integer math and especially new to Euphoria, so I would appreciate it if anybody with an interest could give me some advice. If you are interested, email me and I will send my code and docs for your opinion (it's much too long to post on the listserver as a casual message). Craig p.s. I've programmed in Euphoria for about a month now and already find myself becoming a fanatic about it's virtues. Since I have never been one to take a religious attitude about prog languages, that should indicate just how good Euphoria is! I realize I'm preaching to the choir here, but I just had to say it.
