I know there was an extensive report on this issue a while back, but I can't
find it anywhere in the archives. Does anyone remember the results? I
thought Arthur Knapp helped out a bit, but I can't remember. Thanks
Also, while on the subject of numbers I have a question concerning integers
larger than 536870909. AS doesn't seem to convert the number to an exponent
until 536870912. And I received some on results when working up there:
536870909 + 3
--> -536870912
536870909 + 4
--> -536870911
536870909 + 5
--> -536870910
Anyone have an explanation? Thanks.
