Just curious. How did you calculate this?
according to xcalc 2^128 = 3.402823e+38
try python:
2L**128
or perl:
perl -e 'print sprintf("%39.0f", 2**128)'
Or you could use this to commify and print it:
my $n = reverse sprintf("%39.0f", 2**128); $n =~ s/\G(\d{3})(?=\d)/$1,/g; $n = reverse $n; print $n;
ask me why and ask me what.
