I just sent Rob (and put up on my page: http://www14.brinkster.com/matthewlewis/projects.html ~ 220K ) a new lib for doing math with really big numbers (up to nearly 10,000 digits precision). It stores numbers very compactly, and most operations are not done using string math. This was something that I've been wanting to do for a while. Kat's bignum.e sorta brought this to the surface again. BTW, Kat, I was getting some bad results from your string math routines (I tried to use them at first, but went ahead and rolled my own). It's got add/sub/mult/div operations, plus mod, root, power and compare routines. Matt Lewis
