Dear devels,
I need to create a (short) vector in C, which contains potentially very
large numbers, exponentially to the powers of 2.
This is my test example:
lgth = 35;
int power[lgth];
power[lgth - 1] = 1;
for (j = 1; j < lgth; j++) {
power[lgth - j - 1] = 2*power[lgth - j];
}
Everything works ok until it reaches the limit of 2^32:
power: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192,
16384, 32768, 65536, 131072, 262144, 524288, 1048576, 2097152, 4194304,
8388608, 16777216, 33554432, 67108864, 134217728, 268435456, 536870912,
1073741824, -2147483648, 0, 0, 0
How should I declare the "power" vector, in order to accept integer values
larger then 2^32?
Thanks very much in advance,
Adrian
