Prolog is a quite funny language though. </blockquote>

Depends on how patient you are :-D<br>
And how much you are willing to twist and bend your mind around
using the wrong tool for the job and hence entering bizarro land.<br>
Prolog is really best for processing logic problems :)<br>
</p>
<p>I bet you could do something real-time musical in F# or Scala,
for the declarative (supporting) end of things.<br>
On the other end, I might, one day, also actually look at
Mozilla's Rust language,</p>
<p>supposedly a modern, yet systems programming capable language,
where many of the nastities (is that a word?) of C/C++'s ancient
heritage baggage are eliminated. And I really am growing weary of
them.<br>
There were languages in the 70's that had an actual module system,
for dogs' sake. Instead of the sheer lunacy of recursive
text-/file-pasting with lots of funny switches and multi-layered
obfuscation techni... eh I mean totally sane preprocessor macro
magic, aaaaarrrrgh! And general offloading of stuff - that should
be frikkin compiler internae - to the programmer, not far from
"User: please enter the result of 123 x 456 now!".</p>
<p>Okay, after having my little rant, let's pretend to contribute to
the actual topic:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://ideone.com/yMctug">https://ideone.com/yMctug</a><br>
<br>
that num type has 128 bits resolution, I guess that's enough?<br>
