About the Program

An interesting program, which alleviates the restrictions laid by the primative data types in C. Theoretically, a number of infinite size can input, and thusly added and/or multiplied. Due to constraints, I have chosen to not support subtraction, division nor negative numbers (though they may appear in a later version someday). The program was an exercise in keeping to standards, and working with numbers.

Installation

If you have the program 'make' installed on your computer, the executable is easily creatable by running 'make' on the containing directory.

EXAMPLE:

make

To uninstall the file, the executable is easily removed with the 'make clean' command.

EXAMPLE:

make clean

I recommend you open the 'makefile' to see which macros you can (in particular, if you don't use 'cc' as your C compiler).

Running the Program

Using the numbered menu system, you can add or multiply two numbers. Please note that there is a restriction set in the source code, so you can't input an infinite number (due to c-string restrictions).
