== Edit Or Delete Task ==
 
I suggest editing the task to demonstrate the arbitrary precision arithmetic provided by the language. If not provided by the language, then the task would be to implement this in your language.
 
Otherwise, delete the task. Today, there is no need to re-invent what is provided by the language. I lean towards this recommendation. Many other Rosetta Code tasks require arbitrary precision arithmetic. Those tasks would not use the algorithms presented here. In addition, Internet users of Rosetta Code need to find useful, not misleading, information.
