I asked how to do very-big-integer computing. For example: Mod[2^2^64,1342352] It's pity, this code causes overflow! is there some funtions like this: StringMod["111...111","345"] On Sun, Jan 9, 2011 at 8:17 AM, Daniel Lichtblau <danl at wolfram.com> wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "a boy" <avvboy at gmail.com> > > To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net > > Sent: Saturday, January 8, 2011 2:37:07 AM > > Subject: [mg115335] How do I do very big integer computing by > Mathematica? > > I'm going to search big Fibonacci prime numbers.
