1. $num fails with numbers that though large are within script arithmetic range e.g.

Pad UPC 043011001826 to EAN: 2147483647 (expected 0043011001826)  
Compute 043011001826+1: 43011001827 (expected 43011001827 and got same)

1. $num fails when asked for more than five digits e.g.

Pad catalogue number to six places: 01826 (expected 001826).
