Thanks for the answer.

I was able to take a log with  -X:ExceptionDetail, but since Japanese,
log file includes Japanse characters; I removed them by hand. I was
not able to which numbers were involved. The log file is attached.

Please note that there are two problems; one is "ValueError: value too
big" problem which we do not encounter with CPython. The other is an
infinite loop bug.

Please also note that NZMATH is pure python, having simple module
structure and we will be able to duplicate the problem if you download
it.

Best regards,

2006/8/10, Martin Maly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
By any chance, were you able to determine which operation caused the exception 
and which numbers were involved? What would help me find out what the problem 
is faster would be get a call stack (for that, could you please run your repro 
with -X:ExceptionDetail switch? Then ideally if you could find out what the big 
integer numbers were with which the operation failed, that would be ideal.

Thanks!
Martin

Subject: [IronPython] Bug of big integer manipulation

Hello,

NZMATH is a Python based number theory oriented calculation system developed by 
Tokyo Metropolitan University. The URL is http://tnt.math.metro-u.ac.jp/nzmath/.

Using NZMATH, I encounterd a bug of big integer manipulation.
