Description:

Integer size and overflow handling: Apparently integers are C ints
(i.e. 32 bits on all popular machines), and there is silent wraparound
on overflow.  For a language like bash bigNums would be optimal, but C
long long (64 bits on all popular machines) would be good enough for
many situations.
