    I doubted you. But your typedef irked me big time. also C/C++, odd for
    me... But Ross has his chops for sure. Be sure to read the following thread:

    Cantor pairing... For Moebius...

    shit happens.

    Thanks for writing. If it helps make the world a more rational,
    enlightened, and ideal place, and improves happiness, that's
    a usual virtue.

    ull isn't a bad typedef for unsigned long long int.

    However, ulli would be more apropos.

    It's a long enough type that a typedef could be useful if the type were
    often used.

    This often comes about when looking at numbers in the billions, because unsigned long int will only hold up to a little under 4 billion, which
    isn't near enough for the calculations we like to do in certain programs.
