Storing numbers larger than Big integer C#-CodePudding

I am having a really hard time finding a way to store massive prime numbers in c#. I tried everything but nothing worked out for me. For example. How can I store this number.

Do you know how or what an external library that could store that? Thanks!!!

CodePudding user response：

The size of an integer representable by BigInteger is effectively only constrained by the maximum addressable memory of the program if not the computer itself. You can parse one by using BigInteger.Parse or BigInteger.TryParse and passing NumberStyles.HexNumber (minus the "0x" part of the string).

A note about Parse, if the first digit is "8" or higher, that will result in the first bit of the number's binary representation being a 1. Signed integers interpret this as being a negative number, so your resulting number will not only be a negative number, but it will be very different than the equivalent positive number's binary representation. To avoid this, prepend a "0" to the input string.

You can "store" it by either converting it back into a string with ToString or by converting it into a byte array with ToByteArray, appropriately enough.
