I can't completely disagree, but... just a quick example of a number whose length is > 100
;888,888,888,888
? len("eight hundred eighty eight billion, eight hundred eighty eight million, eight hundred eighty eight thousand, eight hundred eighty eight")
135 edit: or 114, less the commas and spaces

Is this your attempt of finding strokes, like Jochen did?

Fun, but I obviously don't have my head wrapped around minimalist programming.
Thanks!

For fun... using Num2Text() - http://www.kixtart.org/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=202256#Post202256
Practically any number can be used, but must be in quotes once the numbers get sufficiently big enough.
break on
$RC=setoption("WrapATEOL","ON")
$RC=setoption("Explicit","ON")
dim $i,$len
$i="888888888888"
if $i<>4
? "" + $i + " is "
$len=len(replace(num2text($i)," ",""))
while $len<>4
"" + $len + ". " + $len + " is "
$len=len(replace(num2text($len)," ",""))
loop
"4. "
endif
"4 is magic."
Outputs
888888888888 is 114. 114 is 20. 20 is 6. 6 is 3. 3 is 5. 5 is 4. 4 is magic.
