cast of negative number about bignumber HOT 2 CLOSED

There is no function bc_long2num however there is a bc_int2num in the underlying library. Thus there is a constructor for a BigNumber that takes an int but not one for a long. The problem isn't the casting, this is where it fails:

 BigNumber a = -33224;
 Serial.println(a);

The variable a is already wrong after the first line, so trying to cast it later doesn't change that. The simplest way to fix this is to construct from an appropriate string, eg.

  BigNumber a = "-33224";
  Serial.println(a);

Or, if you have an actual long that you want to use, then use sprintf to convert it to a string, and then use that string to form a BigNumber.

Thanks, I understand. I'll close this issue.
