Here is another utility for really large numbers: https://github.com/graemeg/freepascal/tree/master/packages/gmp GMP (multi precision) bindings for fpc This has been around for quite a while and should be well known - I either forgot about it, or memory faded, or it didn't register in my

For integers beyond 64 bit, or even beyond 32 bit on a 64 bit machine, why can't the math be broken down into peices the way a human does it on paper, and then theoretically any number can be added and subtracted, even if it is beyond 32/64 bit? Example: type TSuperLargeInt = string; var
