Abstract: Big numbers are a widely used concept in programming. Typically, we work with numbers from a certain range of values. We know that the multiplicity of integers is infinite. Hence examples of very big numbers such as: 12345678902345678901234567890 are hard to handle because they cannot be stored in 64 bits. Solving the storage and processing of such numbers is both hardware and, especially, software. Modern computer mainframes include operations with very big numbers using registers in which such numbers can be stored in 64 bits. That is, operations with integer numbers up to 264 are possible in hardware. Problems arise when the necessary processing uses very big numbers (greater than 64 bits). Hence, the approaches encountered in programming are to create processing algorithms specific to working with big numbers. In this paper we propose an algorithm for the addition of two very big numbers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
