Int

class Int

Bases: pygears.typing.uint.Integer

Fixed width generic signed integer data type.

Generic parameters:

N: Bit width of the Int representation

Parameters:

val – Integer value to convert to Int

Int is a generic datatype derived from Integer. It represents signed integers with fixed width binary representation. Concrete data type is obtained by indexing:

>>> i16 = Int[16]

__int__()

int(self)

__len__()

Returns the number of bits used for the representation

>>> len(Integer[8](0))
8

bit_length()

Number of bits necessary to represent self in binary.

>>> bin(37)
'0b100101'
>>> (37).bit_length()
6

classmethod decode(val)

Creates Integer object from any int-convertible object val.

>>> Integer[8].decode(0xffff)
Integer[8](255)
