fp Plugin 2.5

fp Plugin 2.5 provides users with a very useful utility which adds two new data types, BigInteger and BigFloat. Except for available memory, there is no limitation on the size of a BigInteger. BigFloat is a multi--precision floating point number. You can set both the internal precision and the decimal output precision for BigFloat, with no limitation except for available memory.

fp Plugin itself allows you to construct programs which can handle the two new data types much like doubles and integers are handled. To a large extent the new data types can be freely used with the +, -, *, and / operators, and can be used in comparisons. And most of REALbasic's functions have been overloaded to take the new data types, where it makes sense to do so.
