So this is a psql bug? I can count the correct number of chars with SPI: alvherre=# create or replace function factorial_length(int) returns int language plphp alvherre-# as $$ $r = spi_exec("select factorial($args[0])"); alvherre$# $row = spi_fetch_row($r); alvherre$# return strlen($row['factorial']); $$; alvherre=# select factorial_length(4000); factorial_length ------------------ 12674 (1 fila) alvherre=# select factorial_length(6000); factorial_length ------------------ 20066 (1 fila) -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
