<p>

   This module provides operations on the type <code class="code">nativeint</code> of
   signed 32-bit integers (on 32-bit platforms) or
   signed 64-bit integers (on 64-bit platforms).
   This integer type has exactly the same width as that of a <code class="code">long</code>
   integer type in the C compiler.  All arithmetic operations over
   <code class="code">nativeint</code> are taken modulo 2<sup class="superscript">32</sup> or 2<sup class="superscript">64</sup> depending
   on the word size of the architecture.
<p>

   Performance notice: values of type <code class="code">nativeint</code> occupy more memory
   space than values of type <code class="code">int</code>, and arithmetic operations on
   <code class="code">nativeint</code> are generally slower than those on <code class="code">int</code>.  Use <code class="code">nativeint</code>
   only when the application requires the extra bit of precision
   over the <code class="code">int</code> type.<br>
