Hi, can you give me a hand...I am getting serious problem with my
Multithreaded Socket. Can you send me a simple code regarding this
issue. I'm under pressure to finish the code. Anyway I am sending my
code so you can pinpoint the error(TONS OF DEFUNCT PROCESSES ARE BEING
CREATED)

generally speaking when you look a number and convert it into text you go through
some simble steps
say we start with this number
123,456,789
first we divide into sets of three
(123,000,000)+(456,000)+(789)
then we expand
(123*1,000,000) + (456*1,000)+(789)
and expand further
(((1*100)+(20+3))*1,
