Hi all,
If my memory over 20 years ago in PI/open development is reliable (probably
not), I seem to recall that the string arithmetic functions were invented to
handle either very large integer numbers or fractional numbers with a large
number of decimal places. I think it was the high precision daily interest
calculations required by banking systems that motivated the development.

I thought that large integer addition is why the functions SADD, SCMP and
SDIV were invented?
