StringInt

For efficiency reasons, computers usually calculate using a limited value range.

If necessary, this can be circumvented in two possible ways:
- Combining numbers and interpreting the result as single number with higher precision
- Interpreting a collection of symbols as single number

This project follows the second approach.
It is not intended for usage in production environments but as a proof of concept, maybe as fun stuff.

The idea behind it is teaching the machine decimal calculation like human beings learned it at school.
