[Bluej-discuss] I have reached Infinity

In playing with an simple program that uses exponents in calculation, I
unintentionally found that 1.6E308 is that largest practical value in Java.
Beyond that, Java considers the number to be "infinity".

I want to push my calculations further than this number, but still maintain
accuracy.  Any suggestions?
