Has anybody used bigfloat or mpmath in #Python? I need to raise some floats to power (50+) & currently getting overflow error 34 —ideas? 
this what @alexandersclark recommended although I have left it running with bigfloat. Do you think worth changing regardless?

precision is not THAT important. Efficiency is way more so. V big data.
