[REBOL] Big number calculations
From: ptretter:norcom2000 at: 21-Feb-2001 12:33
Ok obviously REBOL has limitation with very big numbers. However,
with the kind of calculations I want to make alot of software will
have limitations. I'm looking to pick some brains for an alternative
to scientific notation. I like scientific notation as it represents
large numbers in a compact manner however; in my case, I have large
numbers and want to represent a very large number in the smallest
footprint possible. Scientific Notation doesnt acheive that with the
type of numbers I will be calculating. Any mathmatics gurus have any
ideas? References to where I can find out about the notations would
be helpful also.
