Hi Aleksander, > Was BCMath\Number considered instead of BcNum? Yes, that was one of the candidates. However, as far as I know, there are no examples of PHP internal classes having namespaces. Also, if use a namespace, the code will be written as new Number(), which is likely to conflict with existing code. In fact, if take a look at GitHub Code Search, you'll find 3.2k results. https://github.com/search?type=code&auto_enroll=true&q=%22new+Number%28%22+language%3APHP+ This won't result in a BC Break, but it can be a bit difficult to use. > ps. there's '2,111' in one place, but should be '2.111', I guess. Oops, thank you. You have good eyes. Regards. Saki
