Hmm,
if ($huge==1e+100) I would't say it is an issue, since it's far beyond
32 bits integer.
I know this example was a bit ridiculous, but AFAIK nowhere in our
documentation does it say what the usable range of (pseudo-) integers in
gretl is. All I'm saying is that we need a sentence like "don't use this
function outside the range -2147483648 to 2147483647". And is that even
correct? Or are we implying an even smaller range?
Btw, the actual range is -2147483648 to 2147483648. This works:
<hansl
assert(int(-$huge) == 2147483648)
assert(int($huge) == -2147483648)
</hansl>
even though I still think the signs are wrong.
