[REBOL] 32 bit - dword values
From: ptretter::primary::net at: 22-Dec-2000 23:53
How do we handle 32 bit numbers when trying to convert them. It seems that special precautions
must be taken to prevent math overflow errors. Can someone from RT tell us how we should
handle these issues. For example if I do a to-hex 5555555555 I get an error:
** Script Error: to-hex expected value argument of type: integer
.
** Where: to-hex 5555555555
but to-hex 555555555 works fine
This might be greater than a dword but illustrates my point. Anyone ran into this problem
before?
