I'd definitely look into Sage or maybe Octave... > I think that the interpreter can use Calc's internal functions (I think so, > not sure) to deal with a new data typ,e at least as big as Calc can handle. > I am not talking here about big integers such as Mysql offers, just the ones > that calc handles internally. I believe that Calc is always operating on floating point numbers, regardless. Does the use-case really lend itself to use in a spreadsheet environment? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
