Sorry for the repost (if that is the case).  Somebody told me
I had the "Distribution" set up wrong.  Let's see if I get a better
response this time:


Apologies in advance if this is a FA(s)Q:  I'm using long long int
for some of my work (need to manipulate a 64bit string to do
some kinky stuff with doubles).  I've encountered several
quirky behaviours: 1) It doesn't seem to care much for simple
assignment (it's almost like the upper 4 bytes get dropped),
2) It doesn't seem to care much for standard operators (like
& and ^), and 3) I can't seem to find any reasonable documentation
on this "special" type

Can anybody help this poor soul?
E-mail replies are welcome, but if you feel it merits public
humiliation..... :-)
