:: However, even with these changes, it's not clear to me how your numbers correspond to the task description.
::: But some of the requirements would not hold for the general case with this interpretation. Hmm... --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 15:58, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
 
:: Present in task description and not in numbers: A, u<sub>i</sub>, m', possibly t
 
:: Present in numbers but not in task description: x1, x2, possibly t1, t2
 
:: In other words, it's not clear how x1 and x2 are related to the terms described in the task. (And it doesn't help that I do not understand go well enough to read lines with what look like three argument operations are doing -- things like "x.Sub(x.Lsh(x, n), m)".
 
:: Note also that I can compute the desired results directly, it's figuring out what the task description is asking for that I am having problems with. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 18:41, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
