Yes, that's what I meant. I have another, related question: 9^-9^9 seems to explode on my machine. The memory jumps to over 1 GB, and I have to abort the evaluation. I have no idea why Mathematica would require so much memory to evaluate this expression. Thanks! Frank > This does not make sense to me.
