in thread OT: Finding Factor Closest To Square Root

tall_man,
Interesting. That would imply I couldn't do this either:
my $a = factorint( 24777695232 );
It seems like a bug to me, but I am finding the documentation on Math::Pari lacking. Is there a good tutorial that covers all of the functions offered and examples on how to use them?

Cheers - L~R
