Subject: | no bignum |
(First reported in 2005)
Why isn't there a C<no bignum> pragma? It seems a logical
compliment, like C<use integer> and C<no integer>.
For instance I'd like to use bignum in conjunction with PDL to insure
maximum precision however then some of the arguments given to piddle
constructors are bignum objects and PDL complains. I can manually add
->numify() but then it's ugly and no longer transparent.
