[R] Need to help to get value for bigger calculation

2012-05-22 Thread Rehena Sultana
Hello R-Experts, I want to calculate values like 15^200 or 17^300 in R. In normal case it can calculate the small values of b (a^b). I have fixed width = 1 and digits = 22 but still answers are Inf. How to deal the cases like these? Thanks in advance. Regards, rehena
