int
type intcompiler/src/builtin_docs/types.hy A 64-bit signed integer, from -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807.
Literals are decimal (42, -1); there are no hex, binary or
digit-separator forms. The smallest value cannot be written as a literal;
use -9223372036854775807 - 1.
Arithmetic is exact or it panics, in every build: +, -, *, **,
unary -, ++ / -- and compound assignments panic with
integer overflow when the result does not fit; / and % by zero panic
with division by zero; ** with a negative exponent panics with
negative exponent. / truncates toward zero and % takes the sign of
the left operand. << and >> panic with shift count out of range
when the count is outside 0..=63 (a constant count is a compile error);
bitwise operators never panic. For wrapping,
checked or saturating arithmetic see the stdlib arith module.
Casts with as: int as float converts exactly when it can;
int as byte keeps the low 8 bits (an out-of-range literal is a
compile-time error); int as bool is true for any non-zero value.
Mixing int and float in one operator is a type error, so cast first.
int implements Num, Integral, Ord, Eq and Show.
