(** {1 Nativeint}
Helpers for 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 pointer 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 ( + ) : t -> t -> t
(** Addition. *)
val ( - ) : t -> t -> t
(** Subtraction. *)
val ( ~- ) : t -> t
(** Unary negation. *)
val ( * ) : t -> t -> t
(** Multiplication. *)
val ( / ) : t -> t -> t
(** Integer division. Raise [Division_by_zero] if the second
argument is zero. This division rounds the real quotient of
its arguments towards zero, as specified for {!Stdlib.(/)}. *)
val ( mod ) : t -> t -> t
(** [x mod y ] is the integer remainder.
If [y <> zero], the result of [x mod y] satisfies the following properties:
[zero <= x mod y < abs y] and
[x = ((x / y) * y) + (x mod y)].
If [y = 0], [x mod y] raises [Division_by_zero]. *)

(** Bitwise logical and. *)
val ( lor ) : t -> t -> t
(** Bitwise logical or. *)
val ( lxor ) : t -> t -> t
(** Bitwise logical exclusive or. *)
val lnot : t -> t
(** Bitwise logical negation. *)
val ( lsl ) : t -> int -> t
(** [ x lsl y] shifts [x] to the left by [y] bits.
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. *)
val ( lsr ) : t -> int -> t
(** [x lsr 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]. *)
val ( asr ) : t -> int -> t
(** [x asr 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]. *)

(** {2 Conversion} *)
val to_int : t -> int
(** Convert the given native integer (type [nativeint]) to an
integer (type [int]). The high-order bit is lost
during the conversion. *)
val of_int : int -> t
(** Alias to {!Nativeint.of_int}.
Convert the given integer (type [int]) to a native integer (type [nativeint]). *)
val to_float : t -> float
(** Convert the given native integer to a floating-point number. *)
val of_float : float -> t
(** Alias to {!Nativeint.of_float}.
Convert the given floating-point number to a native integer,
discarding the fractional part (truncate towards 0).
The result of the conversion is undefined if, after truncation, the number
is outside the range \[{!CCNativeint.min_int}, {!CCNativeint.max_int}\]. *)
val to_string : t -> string
(** Return the string representation of its argument, in decimal. *)
val of_string_exn : string -> t
(** Alias to {!Nativeint.of_string}.
Convert the given string to a native integer.
The string is read in decimal (by default, or if the string
begins with [0u]) or in hexadecimal, octal or binary if the
string begins with [0x], [0o] or [0b] respectively.
The [0u] prefix reads the input as an unsigned integer in the range
[[0, 2*CCNativeint.max_int+1]]. If the input exceeds {!CCNativeint.max_int}
it is converted to the signed integer
[CCInt64.min_int + input - CCNativeint.max_int - 1].
Raise [Failure "Nativeint.of_string"] if the given string is not
a valid representation of an integer, or if the integer represented
exceeds the range of integers representable in type [nativeint]. *)
val of_string : string -> t option
(** Safe version of {!of_string_exn}.
Like {!of_string_exn}, but return [None] instead of raising. *)
val of_string_opt : string -> t option
(** Alias to {!of_string}. *)
