I tried doing this before.  I actually got it working, but unfortunatley
crashed before I could get to a computer.  I used strings and fPart, iPart
and multiplication by powers of ten to count the sigfigs, and maintined the
number of figures in another variable.  Then, I could manipulate the
variables with full accuracy, and round off in the end, so it can work.  I
never got around to anything beyond basic 4 function though.
