Line 34:
GUISS uses the desktop calculator for this task, and produces the maximum number of digits that the desktop calculator produces. ("Forever" in computing terms means until the maximum value of the registers is reached, or resources are exhausted, rather than "forever" as in the life of the Universe). The GUISS solution provided the closest approximate fit based on its capabilities. Maybe I should have stuck a note that the solution provided produces as many digits as possible for the implementation. (It is not possible to get more digits). The solution was deleted, but I will restore it and pin a note. [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 22:34, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
:So "my language can only quote windows calcualator, and windows calculator can only provide 16 digits" is your defense? Assuming that's what you meant by "resources", then your language is incapable of meeting reasonable human expectations of this task, and the decent thing to do is just say so. Why would you rather find some loophole and try to squeeze a "solution" in here, what's the point of that? --[[User:Ledrug|Ledrug]] 00:13, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
