LocutusofBorg, your reply doesn't make sense to me. You're ready to dismiss my post because mIRC wasn't made for math purposes? This problem shouldn't be fixed because my usage of mIRC is deemed improper by you? It seems to me that people use mIRC for non-IRC related tasks just as much as IRC-related tasks, and it's needless to say that mIRC has features that have no association with the IRC protocol or the use of IRC servers. I think a feature should work properly no matter how it's used.
BTW, the math problem I was trying to solve with the aid of mIRC, IMO, isn't close to being complicated. The code involved with solving the problem is quite small, in fact.
