I will try to fasten the modular arithmetic.
For the problem with the negative time i have started following
computation:
Zeit=cputime()
for i in range(100000):
g=maxima('193^99484')
Ergebnis=cputime(Zeit)
print Ergebnis
and get following intressting result:
130.62
262.78
393.85
524.81
656.77
788.77
917.66
1046.38
1176.15
1307.78
1439.65
1571.42
1701.97
1832.77
1962.88
2093.95
-2071.387296
-1940.027296
-1808.707296
-1677.137296
-1543.907296
-1410.187296
-1279.297296
-1146.907296
-1016.587296
-885.917296
-752.657296
-620.757296
-489.627296
-358.087296
-224.227296
-94.367296
36.762704
and so on, so the sign of the time changes about around every 2100
seconds.
Is this a problem of my computer or of the cputime command?
