For this, I'd do it "by hand". Treat the numbers as text in a field rather than digits and follow the same process you would if you were to do this on paper.
For modulo I'd start by making a list of multiples of 97 and start manually subtracting them. for example, 1234516789012345678901234 -970000000000000000000000 264516789012345678901234 264516789012345678901234 -2 * 97000000000000000000000 =70516789012345678901234 rinse and repeat. should be easy enough to do the subtraction and carry and such in code. Eventually you end up with the modulo. -- Easy enough to do the same thing with all the other math functions. Kee On Nov 13, 2012, at 7:41 AM, R.
