10 /* Parameters of the long integer representation. There are two different
11 sets of parameters: one set for 30-bit digits, stored in an unsigned 32-bit
12 integer type, and one set for 15-bit digits with each digit stored in an
13 unsigned short. The value of PYLONG_BITS_IN_DIGIT, defined either at
14 configure time or in pyport.h, is used to decide which digit size to use.
16 Type 'digit' should be able to hold 2*PyLong_BASE-1, and type 'twodigits'
17 should be an unsigned integer type able to hold all integers up to
18 PyLong_BASE*PyLong_BASE-1. x_sub assumes that 'digit' is an unsigned type,
19 and that overflow is handled by taking the result modulo 2**N for some N >
20 PyLong_SHIFT. The majority of the code doesn't care about the precise
21 value of PyLong_SHIFT, but there are some notable exceptions:
23 - long_pow() requires that PyLong_SHIFT be divisible by 5
25 - PyLong_{As,From}ByteArray require that PyLong_SHIFT be at least 8
27 - long_hash() requires that PyLong_SHIFT is *strictly* less than the number
28 of bits in an unsigned long, as do the PyLong <-> long (or unsigned long)
29 conversion functions
31 - the long <-> size_t/Py_ssize_t conversion functions expect that
32 PyLong_SHIFT is strictly less than the number of bits in a size_t
34 - the marshal code currently expects that PyLong_SHIFT is a multiple of 15
36 The values 15 and 30 should fit all of the above requirements, on any
37 platform.

72 The absolute value of a number is equal to
73 SUM(for i=0 through abs(ob_size)-1) ob_digit[i] * 2**(SHIFT*i)
74 Negative numbers are represented with ob_size < 0;
75 zero is represented by ob_size == 0.
76 In a normalized number, ob_digit[abs(ob_size)-1] (the most significant
77 digit) is never zero. Also, in all cases, for all valid i,
78 0 <= ob_digit[i] <= MASK.
79 The allocation function takes care of allocating extra memory
80 so that ob_digit[0] ... ob_digit[abs(ob_size)-1] are actually available.
82 CAUTION: Generic code manipulating subtypes of PyVarObject has to
83 aware that longs abuse ob_size's sign bit.
