       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  na-
       tiveint 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  ap-
       plication requires the extra bit of precision over the int type.

       Literals for native integers are suffixed by n:
            let zero: nativeint = 0n
            let one: nativeint = 1n
            let m_one: nativeint = -1n

       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.  This division rounds the real quotient of its argu-
       ments towards zero, as specified for (/) .

       Raises Division_by_zero if the second argument is zero.

       val unsigned_div : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Same as Nativeint.div , except that arguments  and  result  are  inter-
       preted as     unsigned native integers.

       Since 4.08.0

       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 unsigned_rem : nativeint -> nativeint -> nativeint

       Same  as  Nativeint.rem  ,  except that arguments and result are inter-
       preted as     unsigned native integers.

       Since 4.08.0

       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 smallest 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  re-
       gardless 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  na-
       tiveint ).

       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 unsigned_to_int : nativeint -> int option

       Same as Nativeint.to_int , but interprets the argument as  an  unsigned
       integer.  Returns None if the unsigned value of the argument cannot fit
       into an int .

       Since 4.08.0

       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 ex-
       act.

       val of_string : string -> nativeint

       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 hexadeci-
       mal, octal or binary if the string begins with 0x , 0o  or  0b  respec-
       tively.

       The  0u  prefix reads the input as an unsigned integer in the range [0,
       2*Nativeint.max_int+1] .  If the input exceeds Nativeint.max_int it  is
       converted   to   the   signed  integer  Int64.min_int  +  input  -  Na-
       tiveint.max_int - 1 .

       Raises Failure 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_opt : string -> nativeint option

       Same as of_string , but return None instead of raising.

       Since 4.05

       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  specifica-
       tion as 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 .

       val unsigned_compare : t -> t -> int

       Same  as  Nativeint.compare  , except that arguments are interpreted as
       unsigned native integers.

       Since 4.08.0

       val equal : t -> t -> bool

       The equal function for native ints.

       Since 4.03.0

       val min : t -> t -> t

       Return the smaller of the two arguments.

       Since 4.13.0

       val max : t -> t -> t

       Return the greater of the two arguments.

       Since 4.13.0
