Funny that you mention it, my CDuce prototype use OCaml Nums library to implement integers, and fact 10000 is one of the examples: http://www.cduce.org/cgi-bin/cduce?example=integers I have no experience with other large integers libraries for OCaml... -- Alain ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
