Bigger data type

Post by kiddo »

I have problem finding a solution that need to use a bigger data type than 'long long'.
Maybe like Java Big Integer.

Is there a data type like Java Big Integer in C++?
Need help, A.S.A.P

No. Write one, or use a third-party library such as gmp.

will the grading system recognize gmp lib?

So, the only option I have to code it myself by using string operation?

No, UVa judge doesn't allow third-party libraries.

Yes.

It's not very hard at all, except for the division.
by using string operation?
Using arrays, yes.
