I wonder whether integers work in Nim as most people would expect.
Is anybody surprised by the output of the program below?
const c_1bn = 1_000_000_000
let i_4bn = 4 * c_1bn
proc test_1[T](n : T) = echo n, "A"
proc test_1[T : int|uint](n : T) = echo n, "B"
proc test_1(n : int64) = echo n, "C"
proc test_1(n : int16) = echo n, "D"
test_1(c_1bn)
test_1(2'i8)
test_1(3'u16)
test_1(i_4bn)
proc test_2[T](n : T) = echo n, "A"
proc test_2[T : int](n : T) = echo n, "B"
proc test_2(n : uint) = echo n, "C"
proc test_2(n : int16) = echo n, "D"
test_2(5_000_000_000)
test_2(6'i8)
test_2(7'u16)
proc test_3[T](n : T) = echo n, "A"
proc test_3[T : uint](n : T) = echo n, "B"
proc test_3(n : int) = echo n, "C"
proc test_3(n : int64) = echo n, "D"
test_3(8_000_000_000)
test_3(9'i8)
test_3(10'u16)
Run
