type(x, integer[a..b])

Parameters

x

-

any expression

n

-

1, 2, 4, or 8

a, b

-

integers with ab

Description

• 

The type(x, integer) function returns true if x is a Maple integer.

• 

If the type is provided with a single integer index n, then type(expr, integer[n]) returns true if, and only if, n is one of 1, 2, 4, or 8, and expr is an integer representable as a signed n-byte hardware integer.

• 

The call type(expr, integer[a .. b]) returns true if, and only if, expr is an integer satisfying the inequalities aexpr and exprb, where a and b are integers with ab.

Subtypes

• 

type/posint, type/negint, type/nonposint, type/nonnegint
