The replies I got are summarized below: 1. Are there any "big math" routines? Most people suggested taking stuff out of bc/dc. I had originally forgotten about these programs doing big math, but it turns out they aren't quite what I want anyway. Some others mentioned the "mp(3)" library. This is what I want, but I can't find documentation for it anywhere. Anyone got the manual page? 2. Are C arrays always initialized to 0? This was a stupid question on my part, the answer is right in the C book. I have loaned my book out, but this is no excuse. Anyway, the answer is "yes" except for automatic and register data. Thanks to all who responded, --Dave Curry pur-ee!davy
