Purpose
- Irrigation
gollark: But this is an esolang, so I doubt it's very efficiently implemented, and this might be doing some sort of inefficient stuff itself.
gollark: I mean, 2^32 is actually within tractable computation range for modern computers (it's 2 billion or so, and my laptop can probably manage 8GIPS (giga-instructions per second) sequentially).
gollark: This is the problem - with ones which are too long they can't be really tested.
gollark: In decently general-purpose programming languages with access to more space, you can construct ridiculously large numbers by implementing ↑ and all that.
gollark: Not without extra imports or something. or maybe python2.
