Wait.. in your original e-mail you said the answer as given by the
book was 10**18, not 10e18 (which is of course 10 * 10**18). But
either way, I'd consider 5e18 a correct answer, since it's fairly
close to 1e18 (relatively anyway, it's still 5 times as big). At least
there is not an order of magnitude difference anymore.
