The problem of precision...

Well, I finally have some  some keys to play in EuroMillions, but the PC ran out of enough precision to store the probability values, so what I have is a 1/8.6 chance of winning 10€ per key. LOLLLLLLL I'll try to replace the doubles tonight with 256-bit floating point numbers using Gnu MP and a C# wrapper.
