in thread how to speed up program dealing with large numbers?

1) I would upgrade to perl 5.10+ for say() alone. Having to write "\n" at the end of a print() statement every time will take years off your life. say() is equivalent to print() with a newline at the end of the output.

Except that you spend those years anyway reading programs that alternate between `say` and `print` depending on whether they're printing full lines of output at a time.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
