Actually, in Python integers have no upper limit (sic!).
I did some Ethereum front- and backend development in both Python and in JS, and this made a lot of difference in the readability of the code. In Python, the only problems we encountered was when writing into ndb, which has 64 ints by default, whereas in JS, we had to use BigNumbers everywhere.
- skrebbel 9y agoOh wow, really? I feel pretty stupid now. All languages I've used in anger have an upper limit for integers so I'd just assumed this was pretty much general. I see now that it works in Ruby just like in Python. Pretty cool! Learn something new each day :-)
