Description

• 

An integer is an optionally signed, arbitrary-length sequence of one or more decimal digits.  The maximum length of an integer is system dependent and can be obtained by using kernelopts(maxdigits).

• 

The Integer(x) constructor function returns

– 

x if x is a positive or negative integer.

– 

symbolic infinity if x is infinity.

– 

undefined if x is a symbolic undefined.

– 

Integer(Re(x)) + I * Integer(Im(x)) if x is of type nonreal.

  

Otherwise, it returns unevaluated.

• 

The integer 0 does not have a sign (compare the floating-point zeros, +0.0 and -0.0).

• 

In addition to arithmetic operators, some basic functions that operate on integers are:

abs

sign

min

max

factorial

irem

iquo

modp

mods

mod

isqrt

iroot

isprime

ifactor

ifactors

igcd

ilcm

igcdex

iratrecon

rand

• 

There are also many other functions for integers in the NumberTheory and combinat packages (including binomial coefficients, Fibonacci numbers, Stirling numbers, Jacobi symbol, and Euler's totient function).
