Just a day before I participated in the qualification round of Google Code Jam. This is my first experience of such an online coding contest. It was really fun.
There were three problems given of which i was able to solve two. But on one of the problems I was asked to work with values that are really huge. I am a Java guy and I thought I would go for double variable. Unfortunately, the precision of double also was not enough. Moreover, I attended this during the closing stage, I was not having the time to dig much into it (plus solving 1 is enough to qualify to the next stage).
My question is this, How to have a precision mechanism that is greater than double. My coding experience is in Java, so it would be great if you could please answer in that lines.
Thanks
