PureBasic Forums - English

added random number example, more functions need to be added, but am too tired.

thank you jack very much for your indispensable full example, i have packed your example together with the libgmp-3.dll libgmp-3.lib libmpfr-1.dll libmpfr-1.lib in one rar file so the users can experiment with the huge precision numbers, they can also make a GUI calculator for big numbers depending on jack code.

Hello !

Having thought that my post was "buried", I did not consult it since February, but thanks to COMTOIS (private communication) : he informed me that Jack and applePi have brought some major contribution there ! Thus, one large thank to them three!!

Having said that, I take advantage of this reply to renew my request for Team PB to include these mathematical functions in the language. If I don't make a mistake, since GNU products are free of any rights, we can use them ad libitum, and - although not knowing how to make it myself - I don't think whether it is an enormous work to put these functions in a library with a generic name which would avoid the heaviness of use of GNU (ex: to write k = i*j instead of : mpz_mul (k, i, j) ). After all, other BASIC know how to make calculations of a big precision - GFA, POWERBASIC, ... - by using "generic" functions for which the user has to write only the name: y = exp(x), without having to install himself any library.

May I also beiing astonished of the deafening silence of the TEAM PureBasic concerning the correction of what we can reasonably consider as a weakness of the language ? No member of the team of "Fantaisie Software" saw fit to express itself on this subject since one year it was evoked...
Unless there is not more than a single member, as seems to suggest a participant in a post on PUREBASIC:

If it is exact, it lets smooth a severe doubt over the perpetuity of the product, because, however competent is the founder of "Fantaisie Software" , he will drop sooner or later the maintenance due to the lack of time or because of a change of professional activity .

By hoping to deceive me on this last point, and by waiting for your opinions on this update which I consider personally as indispensable, I still thank you for all your contributions in this post .
Cordially in all,
Sospel
