Math exercise not computing correctly

[Bruno Borges]

Hey all,

I am playing with factorization, and the following problem does not eval to
the right value.

I tried the same with Node and it worked fine.

2 * 5 * 103 * 3030214670981671 = 3121121111111121130

-> https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=2+*+5+*+103+*+3030214670981671

Java computes the correct result: 3121121111111121130
Nashorn (v15.4) computes the following result: 3121121111111120896
Node.js (v16.14.2) computes the following result: 3121121111111121000

As you may know, this is because numbers in JavaScript are represented as
double, and then we lose precision.

The solution for Node.js, is the use of BigInt(number), or appending the
letter 'n' after each number:

> 2n * 5n * 103n * 3030214670981671n
3121121111111121130n

What would be the best workaround for Nashorn?
