The Integer type deals with signed, countable integer numbers.

Class Methods (see Type)

biggest

Returns the value of the largest possible positive integer: 2**29 - 1.

New

Converts a float, symbol or Text value into an integer, if possible. Otherwise, it returns null.

Instance Methods

Most binary methods will coerce a passed Float value to integer before performing the method. No limit checking is performed (e.g., multiplying two very large integers could overflow, returning a truncated, incorrect value). Null is returned if the requested computation makes no sense (e.g., divide by zero).

-@

Negate the integer (flip its sign)

+

Add two integers

-

Subtract two integers

*

Multiply two integers

/

Divide two integers

%

Return the remainder after dividing two integers (7%2 returns 1)

**

self to the power of the second integer (2**3 returns 8)

<=>

Compare two integers. Return -1 if self is less, 1 if greater, and 0 if equal. Return null if not comparable.

Abs

Absolute value (-1).Abs returns 1.

And

Boolean bit-oriented and

Char

Return a Text value containing a single UTF-8 unicode character whose code is the integer.

integer?

Return true if self is an integer, otherwise 'null'.

Float

Convert to a float and return.

Max

Return the larger integer. (5).Max(2) returns 5.

Min

Return the smaller integer. (2).Min(-4) returns -4.

Next

Return the next integer, essentially adding 1 to it.

Not

Boolean bit-oriented not

Or

Boolean bit-oriented or

Shl

Bitwise shift to the left. (3).Shl(2) returns 12.

Shr

Bitwise shift to the right. (3).Shr(1) returns 1.

Sign

Return 1 if positive, -1 if negative.

Text

Convert to new Text value and return.

Xor

Boolean bit-oriented xor
