Need explanation of client program.

jasong

Could someone please post a general explanation of what the client is doing?  For example, I'm processing from 3605000000001 to 3605500000000 and "current", I assume, is the place in the workunit it's presently processing.  But what do the numbers mean, exactly?  Also, will we be able to track our progress by a formula applied to these workunit ranges?

Oh, and, in reference to something in the English explanation: Don't worry about being politically incorrect, study whatever you want.  If you can figure out a way to simulate human cloning(for example) on a computer, then go for it.  Don't worry about offending other countries, our egos are too big, anyway.

Hi jasong! Thank you for testing it.

The whole task is from 0 to 4000000000000 and every WU will compute a part of that, e.g. from 3605000000001 to 3605500000000. The "current" is the position you just processed between the 3605000000001 and 3605500000000. All these numbers represent a value on the formula which called BBP formula. It's hard to post the formula here, maybe you can google it.
In addition, I will post a passage on website to explain the computing progess in a few days.
