#5 Need integer math

Open

Internally bwBASIC is plumbed to do all number handling in double precision floats. This is horribly innefficient. ChipMaster’s prime number benchmark takes 6mins on a 3.5GHz system. Ouch! Python is about 22sec.

Specifically the integer divide operator “\” should be... well... integer!
