Best coding language for dealing with large numbers (50000+ digits)

Can you recommend good languages to do math with large numbers in?

So far I've used Actionscript 2 and Objective-c and with Objective-c even using NSDecimalNumbers I was limited to 32 digits in my calculations... I would need at a minimum to be able to calculate with numbers fifty-thousand digits long.

Solution

  • Perhaps Haskell will appeal to you.
