I need to perform modulo operations on extremely large numbers.  The %
operator is giving me number out of range errors and the mod(x, y)
function simply seems to return the wrong results.  Also, my numerator
is in the format of a quoted string, which the mod function can't take.

Desparately searching for solutions,
Chadwick.
