Hi while calculating the integer part of square roots I realized that sqrt() returns wrong results for large inputs (although the sqrt() command itself accepts "bignum" values). example: int(sqrt(2^94533)) I guess that this is due to the fact that SAGE simplifies the expression above as sqrt(2) * 2^47266 and approximates sqrt(2) using 10 or so digits. Is there a way to compute sqrt() correctly for large inputs (at least the integer part)? Best regards, Georg Hahn
