Hello Anonymous Monk,

First of all I want to say thank you for your time and effort reading and replying to my question. Sorry for the late reply but I was out of network area.

To be honest I wanted to experiment with binary number and try to build my library with all positive and negative variations of decimals.

Based on the replies that I got from my question I suppose that 8 bit decimal integer will not result to something useful. So probably that small number does not even exist.

Than I should reconsider this part and possibly work with 32 bit floating points (positive/negative) that possibly exist.

Again thank you for your time and effort.

Seeking for Perl wisdom...on the process of learning...not there...yet!
