**
**  This file  declares  the  functions  handling  arbitrary  size  integers.
**
**  There are three integer types in GAP: 'T_INT', 'T_INTPOS' and 'T_INTNEG'.
**  Each integer has a unique representation, e.g., an integer  that  can  be
**  represented as 'T_INT' is never  represented as 'T_INTPOS' or 'T_INTNEG'.
**
**  'T_INT' is the type of those integers small enough to fit into  29  bits.
**  Therefor the value range of this small integers is: $-2^{28}...2^{28}-1$.
**  This range contains about 99\% of all integers that usually occur in GAP.
**  (I just made up this number, obviously it depends on the application  :-)
**  Only these small integers can be used as index expression into sequences.
**
**  Small integers are represented by an immediate integer handle, containing
**  the value instead of pointing  to  it,  which  has  the  following  form:
**
**      +-------+-------+-------+-------+- - - -+-------+-------+-------+
**      | guard | sign  | bit   | bit   |       | bit   | tag   | tag   |
**      | bit   | bit   | 27    | 26    |       | 0     | 0     | 1     |
**      +-------+-------+-------+-------+- - - -+-------+-------+-------+
**
**  Immediate integers handles carry the tag 'T_INT', i.e. the last bit is 1.
**  This distuingishes immediate integers from other handles which  point  to
**  structures aligned on 4 byte boundaries and therefor have last bit  zero.
**  (The second bit is reserved as tag to allow extensions of  this  scheme.)
**  Using immediates as pointers and dereferencing them gives address errors.
**
**  To aid overflow check the most significant two bits must always be equal,
**  that is to say that the sign bit of immediate integers has a  guard  bit.
**
**  The macros 'INT_TO_HD' and 'HD_TO_INT' should be used to convert  between
**  a small integer value and its representation as immediate integer handle.
**
**  'T_INTPOS' and 'T_INTPOS' are the types of positive  respective  negative
**  integer values  that  can  not  be  represented  by  immediate  integers.
**
**  This large integers values are represented in signed base 65536 notation.
**  That means that the bag of  a  large  integer  has  the  following  form:
**
**      +-------+-------+-------+-------+- - - -+-------+-------+-------+
**      | digit | digit | digit | digit |       | digit | digit | digit |
**      | 0     | 1     | 2     | 3     |       | <n>-2 | <n>-1 | <n>   |
**      +-------+-------+-------+-------+- - - -+-------+-------+-------+
**
**  The value of this  is:  $d0 + d1 65536 + d2 65536^2 + ... + d_n 65536^n$,
**  respectivly the negative of this if the type of this object is T_INTNEG'.
**
**  Each digit is  of  course  stored  as  a  16  bit  wide  unsigned  short.
**  Note that base 65536 allows us to multiply 2 digits and add a carry digit
**  without overflow in 32 bit long arithmetic, available on most processors.
**
**  The number of digits in every  large  integer  is  a  multiple  of  four.
**  Therefor the leading three digits of some values will actually  be  zero.
**  Note that the uniqueness of representation implies that not four or  more
**  leading digits may be zero, since |d0|d1|d2|d3| and |d0|d1|d2|d3|0|0|0|0|
**  have the same value only one, the first, can be a  legal  representation.
**
**  Because of this it is possible to do a  little  bit  of  loop  unrolling.
**  Thus instead of looping <n> times, handling one digit in each  iteration,
**  we can loop <n>/4 times, handling  four  digits  during  each  iteration.
**  This reduces the overhead of the loop by a factor of  approximatly  four.
**
**  Using base 65536 representation has advantages over  using  other  bases.
**  Integers in base 65536 representation can be packed  dense  and  therefor
**  use roughly 20\% less space than integers in base  10000  representation.
**  'SumInt' is 20\% and 'ProdInt' is 40\% faster for 65536 than  for  10000,
**  as their runtime is linear respectivly quadratic in the number of digits.
**  Dividing by 65536 and computing the remainder mod 65536 can be done  fast
**  by shifting 16 bit to  the  right  and  by  taking  the  lower  16  bits.
**  Larger bases are difficult because the product of two digits will not fit
**  into 32 bit, which is the word size  of  most  modern  micro  processors.
**  Base 10000 would have the advantage that printing is  very  much  easier,
**  but 'PrInt' keeps a terminal at 9600 baud busy for almost  all  integers.
