MS VC Developer Studio 2003.
I have some rather large integer numbers, 128 bits, I need to crunch. I
need to be able to add, subtract, multiply, and divide. In no case would
the result exceed 128 bits. Test for equal, greater than, less than.
I would use _int128 if it existed.
The values are currently in byte arrays such as:
unsigned char value[16];
arranged little endian (least significant first).
Anyone know of a quick and easy way to do this?
Thanks,
Bruce.

That's irrelevant here, unfortunately.

It doesn't. We feel your pain. Next time you will need _int256 or
_int1024. It doesn't mean the language is going to have it, though.
So, you're stuck rolling your own or getting a working solution from
a third party.

Look up "arbitrary precision integer arithmetic" on the Web.

One example that might help you is the 64 bit math routines in the GD
library source. They could be updated to do 128 bit using int64_t.

I have a set that use the arbitrary length integer math often found in
cryptography libaries. I haven't needed int256, yet. E-mail me at
michravera at yahoo dot com and we can talk.

Sorry, what is GD library source?

Try the first hit on a google for "gd library".

I was helping my niece with her trigonometry homework last night. Her

getting the correct result, but it did not agree. Then my wife had the
