Yeah, that was wrong. Later fixed. :)
5) Multiplication of two ints produces a bignum or an int, depending on the result
Why that difference?
At this point I'm tempted to not have the difference and unconditionally produce a bignum.
Int <op> Int gives Bigint or Int (whatever fits) for <op> in (abs, neg, add, sub, mul)
And don't forget corner cases.
I think we've got the corner cases dealt with. I think...
What about bitwise ops BTW, e.g. left shift.
Gah! Haven't gotten there yet. We're still working on basic math...
