(* Module [Nativeint]: processor-native integers *)

(* This module provides operations on the type [nativeint] of
   signed 32-bit integers (on 32-bit platforms) or
   signed 64-bit integers (on 64-bit platforms).
   This integer type has exactly the same width as that of a [long]
   integer type in the C compiler.  All arithmetic operations over
   [nativeint] are taken modulo $2^{32}$ or $2^{64}$ depending
   on the word size of the architecture.

   Performance notice: values of type [nativeint] occupy more memory
   space than values of type [int], and arithmetic operations on
   [nativeint] are generally slower than those on [int].  Use [nativeint]
   only when the application requires the extra bit of precision
   over the [int] type. *)

val zero: nativeint
val one: nativeint
val minus_one: nativeint
      (* The native integers 0, 1, -1. *)

external neg: nativeint -> nativeint = "%nativeint_neg"
      (* Unary negation. *)
external add: nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint = "%nativeint_add"
      (* Addition. *)
external sub: nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint = "%nativeint_sub"
      (* Subtraction. *)
external mul: nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint = "%nativeint_mul"
      (* Multiplication. *)
external div: nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint = "%nativeint_div"
      (* Integer division.  Raise [Division_by_zero] if the second 
         argument is zero. *)
external rem: nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint = "%nativeint_mod"
      (* Integer remainder.  If [x >= 0] and [y > 0], the result
           of [Nativeint.rem x y] satisfies the following properties:
           [0 <= Nativeint.rem x y < y] and
           [x = Nativeint.add (Nativeint.mul (Nativeint.div x y) y) (Nativeint.rem x y)].
           If [y = 0], [Nativeint.rem x y] raises [Division_by_zero].
           If [x < 0] or [y < 0], the result of [Nativeint.rem x y] is
           not specified and depends on the platform. *)
val succ: nativeint -> nativeint
      (* Successor.
         [Nativeint.succ x] is [Nativeint.add x Nativeint.one]. *)
val pred: nativeint -> nativeint
      (* Predecessor.
         [Nativeint.pred x] is [Nativeint.sub x Nativeint.one]. *)
val abs: nativeint -> nativeint
      (* Return the absolute value of its argument. *)
val size: int
      (* The size in bits of a native integer.  This is equal to [32]
         on a 32-bit platform and to [64] on a 64-bit platform. *)
val max_int: nativeint
      (* The greatest representable native integer,
         either $2^{31} - 1$ on a 32-bit platform,
         or $2^{63} - 1$ on a 64-bit platform. *)
val min_int: nativeint
      (* The greatest representable native integer,
         either $-2^{31}$ on a 32-bit platform,
         or $-2^{63}$ on a 64-bit platform. *)

         The result is unspecified if [y < 0] or [y >= bitsize],
         where [bitsize] is [32] on a 32-bit platform and
         [64] on a 64-bit platform. *)
external shift_right: nativeint -> int -> nativeint = "%nativeint_asr"
      (* [Nativeint.shift_right x y] shifts [x] to the right by [y] bits.
         This is an arithmetic shift: the sign bit of [x] is replicated
         and inserted in the vacated bits.
         The result is unspecified if [y < 0] or [y >= bitsize]. *)
external shift_right_logical: nativeint -> int -> nativeint = "%nativeint_lsr"
      (* [Nativeint.shift_right_logical x y] shifts [x] to the right
         by [y] bits.
         This is a logical shift: zeroes are inserted in the vacated bits
         regardless of the sign of [x].
         The result is unspecified if [y < 0] or [y >= bitsize]. *)

         the number is outside the range

         to a native integer. *)
external to_int32: nativeint -> int32 = "%nativeint_to_int32"
      (* Convert the given native integer to a
         32-bit integer (type [int32]).  On 64-bit platforms,
         the 64-bit native integer is taken modulo $2^{32}$,
         i.e. the top 32 bits are lost.  On 32-bit platforms,
         the conversion is exact. *)

external of_string: string -> nativeint = "nativeint_of_string"
      (* Convert the given string to a native integer.
         The string is read in decimal (by default) or in hexadecimal,
         octal or binary if the string begins with [0x], [0o] or [0b]
         respectively.
         Raise [Failure "int_of_string"] if the given string is not
         a valid representation of an integer. *)

         native integer [n] in the format specified by [fmt].
         [fmt] is a [Printf]-style format containing exactly
         one [%d], [%i], [%u], [%x], [%X] or [%o] conversion specification.
