: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 ;-)

: You might find [[Long multiplication]] interesting. Also, I'm almost certain I created a long division task, but I don't see it anywhere. A better way to ask for what you're looking for might be to ask for implementations of particular algorithms. I don't know the names of many relevant algorithms off-hand, though; perhaps some of the CS majors could chime in. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 16:28, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
