Hi all,

I am dealing with very large numbers but I am only interested in their last
digits.

> 244^244
[1] Inf

As far as I can tell, the largest number R can take has 308 digits (1+E308).
Is there a way I could see the last digits only of 244^244?

Many thanks for your help.

Vincent Deluard, CFA.
