Programming for 1000 digit numbers?

Does anybody know where I can find a programming environment capable of 1000 digit numbers?

UBASIC.
Try http://archives.math.utk.edu/software/msdos/number.theory/ubasic/.html
(looks odd, but that was copied from the browser)

Other sites have it and also show up in a Google search for UBASIC.

It's a popular tool, so I'm sure there is freely-available code for whatever language you like.

To clarify about UBASIC in particular: It's a language and environment in itself, that handles over 2000-digit numbers as part of its regular structure. It isn't an add-in for a language.

In java there is a BigInteger and a BigDecimal classes to deal with those numbers specifically. However it only gives +/-/x/div/mod/etc... the simple binary operators. For more complicated ones you'll have to define yourself.
