Integers¶

There are four signed integer types, and four unsigned integer types:

Type	Length	Minimum Value	Maximum Value
`Int8`	8	−128	127
`Int16`	16	−32,768	32,767
`Int32`	32	−2,147,483,648	2,147,483,647
`Int64`	64	−2⁶³	2⁶³ − 1
`UInt8`	8	0	255
`UInt16`	16	0	65,535
`UInt32`	32	0	4,294,967,295
`UInt64`	64	0	2⁶⁴ − 1

An integer literal is an optional + or - sign, followed by a sequence of digits and underscores, optionally followed by a suffix. If no suffix is present, the literal's type is the lowest between Int32, Int64 and UInt64 in which the number fits:

1      # Int32

1_i8   # Int8
1_i16  # Int16
1_i32  # Int32
1_i64  # Int64

1_u8   # UInt8
1_u16  # UInt16
1_u32  # UInt32
1_u64  # UInt64

+10    # Int32
-20    # Int32

2147483648          # Int64
9223372036854775808 # UInt64

The underscore _ before the suffix is optional.

Underscores can be used to make some numbers more readable:

1_000_000 # better than 1000000

Binary numbers start with 0b:

0b1101 # == 13

Octal numbers start with a 0o:

0o123 # == 83

Hexadecimal numbers start with 0x:

0xFE012D # == 16646445
0xfe012d # == 16646445
