       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

       The native integer 0.

       val one : nativeint

       The native integer 1.

       val minus_one : nativeint

       The native integer -1.

       val neg : nativeint -> nativeint

       Unary negation.

       val add : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Addition.

       val sub : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Subtraction.

       val mul : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Multiplication.

       val div : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       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 Pervasives.(/) .

       val rem : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Integer remainder.  If y is not zero, the  result  of  Nativeint.rem  x  y  satisfies  the
       following  properties:  Nativeint.zero  <=  Nativeint.rem  x  y  < Nativeint.abs 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 .

       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.

       val logand : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Bitwise logical and.

       val logor : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Bitwise logical or.

       val logxor : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Bitwise logical exclusive or.

       val lognot : nativeint -> nativeint

       Bitwise logical negation

       val shift_left : nativeint -> int -> nativeint

       Nativeint.shift_left x 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 shift_right : nativeint -> int -> nativeint

       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 .

       val shift_right_logical : nativeint -> int -> nativeint

       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 .

       val of_int : int -> nativeint

       Convert the given integer (type int ) to a native integer (type nativeint ).

       val to_int : nativeint -> int

       Convert  the  given  native  integer  (type  nativeint  )  to an integer (type int ).  The
       high-order bit is lost during the conversion.

       val of_float : float -> nativeint

       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 [ Nativeint.min_int , Nativeint.max_int ].

       val to_float : nativeint -> float

       Convert the given native integer to a floating-point number.

       val of_int32 : int32 -> nativeint

       Convert the given 32-bit integer (type int32 ) to a native integer.

       val to_int32 : nativeint -> 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.

       val of_string : string -> nativeint

       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, or if the integer represented exceeds the range of integers representable in type
       nativeint .

       val to_string : nativeint -> string

       Return the string representation of its argument, in decimal.

       type t = nativeint

       An alias for the type of native integers.

       val compare : t -> t -> int

       The  comparison  function  for  native  integers,   with   the   same   specification   as
       Pervasives.compare  .   Along  with  the  type t , this function compare allows the module
       Nativeint to be passed as argument to the functors Set.Make and Map.Make .
