Are you sure?

perl -Mbigint -wE 'say 12345678912345678912345678912345678912345678912
+3456789123456789 ** 1234'

So this is bigint and not BigInt? Because when I tried doing the same with BigInt, the data hit the ceiling of xffffffffffffffff.	[reply]

Math::BigInt implements the code for arbitrary precision. bigint enables that code transparently wherever it is used.	[reply]

It works for me: `#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use feature qw{ say }; use Math::BigInt; my $x = 'Math::BigInt'->new('123456789' x 5); say $x 1234;` [download] ($q=q:Sq=~/;[c](.)(.)/;chr(-\|\|-\|5+lengthSq)`"S\|oS2"`map{chr \|+ord }map{substrSq`S_+\|`\|}3E\|-\|`72-3:)=~y+S\|`+$1,++print+eval$q,q,a, [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

That's again my bad. I tried to do a sprintf after the math op using BigInt. BigInt is just fine and I am stupid enough to doubt it.	[reply]
