Problem 553. How to multiply?
- Imagine you are in 3012 Anno Domini, when everyone must learn how to multiply,
- and competing for the highly prestigious post of,
- Chief Comptroller of Ylpitlum Corporation.
- You are being tested via MATLAB Cody for multiplication of two positive integers X and Y,
- both are fortunately in decimal system, and only a few dozen digits or less,
- and delivered as ASCII strings.
- Please output the result Z in similar style.
- Please adopt a general strategy, as X and Y may be changed later.
- Please rename the function Z = ylpitlum(X,Y).
- Function Template:
function Z = ylpitlum(X,Y)
% 098765432109876543210987654321098765432109876543210987654321
X='170000000000000000000000000000';
Y='190000000000000000000000000000';
Z='32300000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000';

it seems there's an erroneous test case. the second test case has this line in it: Assert(isequal(P,PBM(B,M))), but there's no P or PBM
