Hi,

perhaps you computer and an english news-group don't like
german comments.

An other point may be, that with a multi precision arithmetic
2^x_Integer is simply a shift left operation and the -1 need
only a simple addition.

There are several public domain/open source implementations
of multi-precission arithmetic namely

http://www.swox.com/gmp/

and you should have
a look at this source code
