	Recently I asked two questions on the net.  The replies I got
	are summarized below:

	1. Are there any "big math" routines?

		Most people suggested taking stuff out of bc/dc.  I had
	originally forgotten about these programs doing big math, but it
	turns out they aren't quite what I want anyway.  Some others 
	mentioned the "mp(3)" library.  This is what I want, but I can't
	find documentation for it anywhere.  Anyone got the manual page?

	2. Are C arrays always initialized to 0?

		This was a stupid question on my part, the answer is right
	in the C book.  I have loaned my book out, but this is no excuse.
	Anyway, the answer is "yes" except for automatic and register data.

Thanks to all who responded,
