Description: This program is my third adaptation of generate_hcn.py by dario2994
found at: https://gist.github.com/dario2994/fb4713f252ca86c1254d?permalink_comment_id=5043437
.
My intent was to create a compiled version of this program that was faster at
generating highly composite numbers. In order to handle large numbers in Win32
Delphi, I used DelphiBigNumbers units, unit names prefixed with Velthuis,
by Rudy Velthuis found at:
https://github.com/rvelthuis/DelphiBigNumbers/tree/master/Source
.
This attempt was successful but only up to 10^10. Larger HCN numbers were
generated faster by the python version.
