after changing the cpp _int64 to __int64 and using -O2 the runtime is 7 seconds
changing the FB code from long to longint and compiling with FBx64 -gen gcc -O 2 the runtime is 4.5 seconds

Hi all
I don't see any GOTO in the code, am I missing something?

thank you dodicat :-)

Hi dodicat
shouldn't be szz="S1"+Ltrim(zz,"S2") ?
is your editor posted somewhere on this forum ?

Hi dodicat
very nice, just two questions: how did you construct the zz string?
I mean, did you use some kind of utility or did you do it by hand?
why the statement szz="S1"+Rtrim(zz,"S2") ?

thank you SARG :-)

FB comes in 32-bit and 64-bit versions
I tried to cover all possible issues but I can't see what's going on your PC's, it works fine here on a Windows 7 x64 VM

@storm5510 may I suggest that you try to compile the program from the command line? the reason is I don't know if your IDE is reporting warnings or errors, FB doesn't necessarily have to be on the PATH, just give the full path of fbc.exe, for example from the command prompt cd to where the program s...

@storm5510 I think that we may have a misunderstanding of terms, when you say that the program crashes at mpz_init(@p) does that mean that the program successfully compiled (without your commenting-out) and then crashed when you run the executable? or do you get errors when trying to compile the pro...

@storm5510
I suspect that your PC has bad RAM, press Windows Key + R, type “mdsched.exe” and test the RAM

it's bad practice to declare the parameters in a function or sub without byval or byref, in this case, it appears that FreeBasic interprets the parameters as arrays

hello fxm while trying the example by D.J. Peter https://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=267408#p267408 I encountered the type size_t which is defined in crt\ctype, well, since I didn't remember which .bi to include I thought just include crt.bi, that's when the problem showed up code by D.J...

in FreeBASIC-1.07.1 you get many errors when you #include "crt.bi" both win32 and win64
