Hi, Dont know if this is what you want or not, but... If you do N[abc, 100] Mathematica will evaluate abc to 100 decimal places. You may be able to adjust the 'abc' and '100' to get your 80 bit number. -- Doug Webb Oak Ridge National Laboratory weq at ornl.gov D_Webb at prodigy.com http://pages.prodigy.com/TN/gdhu16a/indexdsw.html ==== [MESSAGE SEPARATOR] ====
