Hello,

consider the following example session:

$ csi
  _______   _     __
 / ___/ /  (_)___/ /_____ ___
/ /__/ _ \/ / __/  '_/ -_) _ \
\___/_//_/_/\__/_/\_\\__/_//_/

Version 2, Build 104 - macosx-unix-gnu-ppc - [ dload ]

#;2> (expt 10 100)
10000000000000110891155767964156222877689497504522960006971153529700550125477736178357726682741211136

This result is apparently wrong. Nevertheless it has the correct magnitude. I wonder whether this is some kind of amplified rounding error or a more serious problem.

Any idea or work around is appreciated.

cu,
Thomas Chust
