Re^4: Efficiently working with huge exponents

Can I ask how you are arriving at these huge numbers in your program?

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". I'm with torvalds on this

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice. Agile (and TDD) debunked

Sure. I'm just playing around with some algorithmic approaches to bound some algorithmic complexities. I could have easily left things in a higher-order notation, but since it's just for fun anyway, I wanted to see how far I could push the boundaries of Perl's large number support. In other words, I often permit myself to get sidetracked when I'm already sidetracked for fun anyway. :-)	[reply]
