this solution works for arbitrary large numbers (so ignores the fact that python can handle such large numbers):
In [18]:
from collections import deque
number = deque(maxlen=10)
remains = 0
for i in reversed(list(zip(*a))):
s = sum([int(j) for j in i]) + remains
number.appendleft(s%10)
remains = int(s/10)
while remains > 0:
number.appendleft(remains%10)
remains = int(remains/10)
print(''.join([str(i) for i in number]))
