I was rather hoping people would demonstrate how to write an arbitrary-precision / bignum library, in their preferred language, from scratch. I've been scribbling ideas on the train / bus to and from work. Um, err, yes ... in VBScript. Of course, it wouldn't necessarily be very efficient in that language, but, once working, it might be better in VB6 ... --[[User:Axtens|Axtens]] 13:31, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
:Hi Axtens, You could write a task to, say, compute the same number using only, say, 16 bit integers, but I think a full-blown Bignum implementation would become too large to compare implementations? I did the easy one ;-)
