  Thanks for an excellent contribution. This class shows a great mastery of the language's use of operator overloading. By the way, I used some of the design elements in this class for creating 48-bit and 64-bit "native" datatypes for (other, microprocessor) c++ compilers which do not support __int64. Chris.

  One proposal. Making type casts implicit would make it more C++ish. One should be able to write code like this:

  CLongInt<22> long_int;
  int cpp_int;
  cpp_int=long_int; // implicit cast by operator

  Sincerely,
