The solution is to make calculating more like the method for shorter numbers, since that's already familiar to users. But probably it can't be programmed to be done the same way. So, what would help is if the method for large numbers at least could be given a similar user interface and supplied with Calc. Then users wouldn't all have to invent workarounds or be mystified by trying to handle large exact numbers. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
