Number to string with EternityNum help

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So, I want my game to use EternityNum, But it currently relies on normal roblox limits, But i want my game to go past the regular limits in where EternityNum takes place, As EternityNum will allow numbers up to 10^^(2^1024) where ^^ is a tetration
The Eternity.Short function will return a suffix, But the .short will rely on strings since strings have no limit.

So if anyone could help me, I would be really glad
Because if i try Eternity.Short(1e400), It will just display E(inf)1, Because anything higher than 1.78e308 will automatically because inf for roblox, And then the .Short function will render it as Eternity.Short(“inf”), But if i try Eternity.Short(“1e400”), It will display the suffix 10DTgCe, So all the number stuff has to get converted to a string. And tostring() will not work as it is much more work than that, and 1.79e308 will automatically make the string inf aswell, which will not work.

You need to create your numbers by adding other EternityNums together.

so… like Eternity.Add or something?

If its anything like arbitrary precision numbers in other languages then yes. However, you can only add numbers of comparable size otherwise it will just round back down to the same number it was before. That depends on the actual number of bits in the number, which I have no idea about.

Well, Could you just make my code work with EternityNum, As i would be very glad with that.

Not sure if you’re really dedicated to EternityNum or not, but you could also try out InfiniteMath self plug

InfiniteMath has the same limit as EternityNum, and uses metamethods so instead of needing to use functions like Eternity.Add, you can still use the + sign. It also has suffix functions so you don’t need to create your own.

Can it work with normal numbers or does it need strings

Any module like this won’t work with numbers, the whole point of the module is its not supposed to work with normal numbers.

You can use numbers up to 1e+308, strings like “1e+400”, or a table like {1, 400}

#10

Well can you at least fix my code so it works with strings or tables instead of numbers? and to make it eternitynum compatible (i like eternitynums suffixes more)
