In Julia the number types are defined here: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/fdbcdf78bf0106e609a8d83b9e896d2d11bae594/base/boot.jl#L156 So there are the abstract types: abstract Number abstract Real <: Number abstract AbstractFloat <: Real abstract Integer <: Real abstract Signed <: Integer abstract Unsigned <: Integer and then there are concrete subtypes. For example a few integer types: bitstype 8 Bool <: Integer bitstype 64 Int64 <: Signed bitstype 64 UInt64 <: Unsigned > On Tuesday, March 22, 2016 at 8:01:47 PM UTC+5:30, Mauro wrote: > > You can only inherit from abstract types.
