here's the current version of binary arithmetic on natural numbers in #modal:

paste.sr.ht/~d6/92210f8df9c7fe

supports:
- comparison
- addition/subtraction
- summation
- multiplication/division/remainder
- exponentiation
- gcd/lcm

still some rough edges but it works well for fairly large numbers. on my machine it takes about 33s to compute 13^13; there is still a lot of room for optimization.

@wryl thanks for your help with forcing evaluation order. i still plan to add more types which may improve performance even more.
