Javascript big numbers issue

#1

Hi,
I’ve an issue with javascript numbers systems : the code following
console.log(num % 10, (num + 1) % 10);
outputs 0 0 with out of 32 bits numbers (e.g. num = 87521618088882544408046480).
I need to use big numbers bits to use big numbers to encode and decode textual ASCII charachers (87521618088882544408046480 is “Hello World” per example, 87521618088882544408046480 = 0x48656c6c6f2059e834ab90, representing “\x48\x65\x6c\x6c\x6f\x20…” which is “Hello …”) and they seems to be unusable out of something like 87521618088882544000000000. Can someone help me?

Thanks for helping!

This is because numbers in JavaScript only support up to about 17 characters, no matter where the script is being used. More info:

This problem can be solved using an array or an include file.
