Since the number of digits is near-doubling each time, the final value would have nearly 2^100 ~ 10^31, over a nonillion. The memory requirements are easier still -- the first five iterates need a 32-bit word apiece, after that the number needed keeps doubling, to 2^96 for the last one. That's going to be about an octillion bytes. If it hadn't timed out it would have thrown OOME ... eventually. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
