Integer Objects
***************

All integers are implemented as "long" integer objects of arbitrary
size.

On error, most "PyLong_As*" APIs return "(return type)-1" which cannot
be distinguished from a number.  Use "PyErr_Occurred()" to
disambiguate.

PyLongObject

   This subtype of "PyObject" represents a Python integer object.

PyTypeObject PyLong_Type

   This instance of "PyTypeObject" represents the Python integer type.
   This is the same object as "int" in the Python layer.

int PyLong_Check(PyObject *p)

   Return true if its argument is a "PyLongObject" or a subtype of
   "PyLongObject".  This function always succeeds.

int PyLong_CheckExact(PyObject *p)

   Return true if its argument is a "PyLongObject", but not a subtype
   of "PyLongObject".  This function always succeeds.

PyObject* PyLong_FromLong(long v)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Return a new "PyLongObject" object from *v*, or "NULL" on failure.

   The current implementation keeps an array of integer objects for
   all integers between "-5" and "256". When you create an int in that
   range you actually just get back a reference to the existing
   object.

PyObject* PyLong_FromUnsignedLong(unsigned long v)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Return a new "PyLongObject" object from a C "unsigned long", or
   "NULL" on failure.

PyObject* PyLong_FromSsize_t(Py_ssize_t v)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Return a new "PyLongObject" object from a C "Py_ssize_t", or "NULL"
   on failure.

PyObject* PyLong_FromSize_t(size_t v)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Return a new "PyLongObject" object from a C "size_t", or "NULL" on
   failure.

PyObject* PyLong_FromLongLong(long long v)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Return a new "PyLongObject" object from a C "long long", or "NULL"
   on failure.

PyObject* PyLong_FromUnsignedLongLong(unsigned long long v)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Return a new "PyLongObject" object from a C "unsigned long long",
   or "NULL" on failure.

PyObject* PyLong_FromDouble(double v)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Return a new "PyLongObject" object from the integer part of *v*, or
   "NULL" on failure.

PyObject* PyLong_FromString(const char *str, char **pend, int base)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Return a new "PyLongObject" based on the string value in *str*,
   which is interpreted according to the radix in *base*.  If *pend*
   is non-"NULL", **pend* will point to the first character in *str*
   which follows the representation of the number.  If *base* is "0",
   *str* is interpreted using the Integer literals definition; in this
   case, leading zeros in a non-zero decimal number raises a
   "ValueError". If *base* is not "0", it must be between "2" and
   "36", inclusive.  Leading spaces and single underscores after a
   base specifier and between digits are ignored.  If there are no
   digits, "ValueError" will be raised.

PyObject* PyLong_FromUnicode(Py_UNICODE *u, Py_ssize_t length, int base)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Convert a sequence of Unicode digits to a Python integer value.

   Deprecated since version 3.3, will be removed in version 3.10: Part
   of the old-style "Py_UNICODE" API; please migrate to using
   "PyLong_FromUnicodeObject()".

PyObject* PyLong_FromUnicodeObject(PyObject *u, int base)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Convert a sequence of Unicode digits in the string *u* to a Python
   integer value.

   Nowe w wersji 3.3.

PyObject* PyLong_FromVoidPtr(void *p)
    *Return value: New reference.*

   Create a Python integer from the pointer *p*. The pointer value can
   be retrieved from the resulting value using "PyLong_AsVoidPtr()".

long PyLong_AsLong(PyObject *obj)

   Return a C "long" representation of *obj*.  If *obj* is not an
   instance of "PyLongObject", first call its "__index__()" or
   "__int__()" method (if present) to convert it to a "PyLongObject".

   Raise "OverflowError" if the value of *obj* is out of range for a
   "long".

   Returns "-1" on error.  Use "PyErr_Occurred()" to disambiguate.

   Zmienione w wersji 3.8: Use "__index__()" if available.

   Niezalecane od wersji 3.8: Using "__int__()" is deprecated.

long PyLong_AsLongAndOverflow(PyObject *obj, int *overflow)

   Return a C "long" representation of *obj*.  If *obj* is not an
   instance of "PyLongObject", first call its "__index__()" or
   "__int__()" method (if present) to convert it to a "PyLongObject".

   If the value of *obj* is greater than "LONG_MAX" or less than
   "LONG_MIN", set **overflow* to "1" or "-1", respectively, and
   return "-1"; otherwise, set **overflow* to "0".  If any other
   exception occurs set **overflow* to "0" and return "-1" as usual.

   Returns "-1" on error.  Use "PyErr_Occurred()" to disambiguate.

   Zmienione w wersji 3.8: Use "__index__()" if available.

   Niezalecane od wersji 3.8: Using "__int__()" is deprecated.

long long PyLong_AsLongLong(PyObject *obj)

   Raise "OverflowError" if the value of *obj* is out of range for a
   "long long".

   Returns "-1" on error.  Use "PyErr_Occurred()" to disambiguate.

   Zmienione w wersji 3.8: Use "__index__()" if available.

   Niezalecane od wersji 3.8: Using "__int__()" is deprecated.

long long PyLong_AsLongLongAndOverflow(PyObject *obj, int *overflow)

   Return a C "long long" representation of *obj*.  If *obj* is not an
   instance of "PyLongObject", first call its "__index__()" or

   If the value of *obj* is greater than "LLONG_MAX" or less than
   "LLONG_MIN", set **overflow* to "1" or "-1", respectively, and
   return "-1"; otherwise, set **overflow* to "0".  If any other
   exception occurs set **overflow* to "0" and return "-1" as usual.
