HugeInteger Object

These are instanciable objects created by dimensioning an object variable of type 'HugeInteger', eg.:

DIM h AS HugeInteger

A huge integer is an integer which can have values which for all practical purposes is unlimited. The actual limit is 122,880 places of accuracy. The properties and methods of the huge integer object are as follows:

Note: Currently, the maximum number of digits of precision that a HugeInteger object can contain is 122,880. A greater limitation is the reality that in Superbase there is currently no method of dealing with a string longer than 4000 characters. Still, 4000 digits of precision is probably greater than most people are likely to need.
