And for base 37: Z^Z = (base 10) 36^36 ~= 1.06 * 10^56 As long as you can make up how to write the digits, you can increase the base, so unless you specify a base the highest possible number doesn't exist. --- b { font-weight: normal; }

I don't have a dual core cpu, but I've read that you can assign different applications or processes to each core. That sounds pretty cool. But, I get the impression that if you're a single task computer user, then it probably isn't worth it. Single core CPUs have much higher clock speeds right now. ---------- Some problems are so complex that you have to be highly intelligent and well informed just to be undecided about them. - Laurence J.

Or perhaps you are misinterpreting the scriptures to justify your beliefs. 2 Peter 3:8 (KJV) But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. This verse wasn’t put here to make us understand that to God 1000 of our years is a single day. If you were to interpret it that way and leave off the end of the verse (which you did) then I could just as easily and wrongly use the same verse and leave off the beginning and say that God could do in a single day what it would take us 1000 years to accomplish. Neither is entirely wrong but both miss the point of the verse at hand. Look at the scripture in context and you will see that it was given as an example (not a literal equation: 1000 years = 1 day) and it was meant to give comfort to the people Peter was writing to, they were to not give up hope because the Lord would keep his promises in his own time. -Richard

If you need a large numeric password then the better way to do it is store it as a string a restrict its contents to characters from '0' to '9'. This password can be arbitrarily long if stored as a string. You would only need it to be represented as an integer if you needed arithmetic or mathematical manipulations. Note that checking if the password is correct does not need mathematics, a simple strcmp() will do the trick. Anyway, if you needed to represent as an integer that fits in 64 bits, then I would sugest _int64 instead of LARGE_INTEGER. The _int64 is a compiler feature, and LARGE_INTEGER is a Windows feature. I would always prefer the compiler feature, for the implementation to be as platform independent as possible. If you need manipulation as an integer and it it larger than 64 bits, then I would sugest you created a class for that. Rilhas

#hackC++ wrote: string *const cstr; is the correct way. You wanted to know what cstr was, not ptrstr. cstr is a const ptrstr, while ptrstr is a string*. In any case, you are mistaken.

#hackC++ wrote: just got done reading about vectors and went into arrays which is confusing me to say the least. Technically, a vector is a one-dimensional array. Things get confusing because C++ has a vector type. #hackC++ wrote: By the way, whats the best software for C++. It depends on what you use to measure with.

I once had a similiar problem so I used the strcmp function. Check out digitalmars.com for the details on dealing with strings, its a great site. Got to the runtime library part. ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO MICROSOFT! Demonware Studios Leader
