Signed integers

Like unsigned integers, you can use int by itself to choose the best default size, or specify one of these four specific int sizes:

  • int8: 8-bit integer (-128 to 127)
  • int16: 16-bit integer (-32768 to 32767)
  • int32: 32-bit integer (-2147483648 to 2147483647)
  • int64: 64-bit integer (-9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807)
