hi,
i'm struggling with the way Pd handles numbers bigger then 999999.
i have an array with thousands of numbers, which i write to a file to analyse them.
however, as soon as a number is bigger then 999999 i get the abbreviated notation and am loosing the lower digits.
This is because Pd rounds all numbers to six significant digits when it writes hem to a file. You could try using two arrays with the most and least significant halves of the numbers in parallel. Or wait for 64-bit Pd....
