Data type in c++ or java for holding 20 digit integer

Question

Is there any data type available in Java or C++ which can hold integer values of 20 digits or more? The long long data type can hold only till 18 digits.

Answer 1

Java specific:

You are looking for BigInteger

Immutable arbitrary-precision integers. All operations behave as if BigIntegers were represented in two's-complement notation (like Java's primitive integer types)

For ex:

  BigInteger bint = new BigInteger("1234567856656569");
  BigInteger bint2 = new BigInteger("1234556567856656569");
  System.out.println(bint2.intValue()-bint.intValue()); //397189120

And BigDecimal
