This is all downstream of C omitting the carry flag, which means in practice it's very rarely used for the purpose of a carry.

- immibis 1y agoC does, however, now have _BitInt
- phkahler 1y agoUgh, what a terrible thing to add to C.
- immibis 1y agoEh. It's probably meant to be typedefed away. The number of bits has to be a constant, so it's not like it's a really new language feature, just a different way to write uintXX_t that's not constrained to fixed values of X. If you ask your compiler for 1-megabyte integers, that's on you.
