To anyone reading,
I was wondering if there was a good way to handle incredibly large numbers (on the order of 1,000,000 + digits). Is there any way to make visual basic actually recognize said numbers and use them in normal functions? (as in +, -, *, /, Mod, \, ^... etc) My best guess to how this could be accomplished is a very, very large string array, however, using a string array i would have to 're-invent' math. Meaning I would have to do any, and all equations and mathematical operators by specifically telling it how to do just about everything in the coding. Thanks for any replies.
