Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
Thank you. I am kinda forget mathematics from school. Used to calculators.
You used calculators for evaluating 4*4 ? Maybe ( this ) will help !

C programmers don't use calculators ... we WRITE calculators!
It's correct for sufficiently large values of 8.
I'd agree with others about getting addition working first. Then an easy, if slow, implementation of multiplication can be performed using repeated addition. I.e. 4 * 4 => for (i = sum = 0; i < m2; i++) sum = add(m1,sum);
Get that working before going on to any of the improvements mentioned in Multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The value of 8 (the arabic, hindu numeral, or hindu-arabic numeral) is defined and immutable.
I suppose we could define 8 to have a different value, for example by introducing some other numeric system. However, the context of the discussion here suggests such an alternate numeric system was not being considered.
As such, your statement is crap.
Thanks for all the help and "cheers".I am working on asymmetric encryption.
