Thanks for your answers.
You want a sane language: use a different language, most
C-derived language have insane semantic for integers..
Have you tried Ada?
I want a language with metaprogramming and compile-time
computations.

Or you can add an assert/enforce, or you can create a small

Surely structs could work?
struct safeType(T) {
T value;
}
Define all operatio
Languages as Ada, Delphi, C# and few others (C/C++ too, with a
new Clang feature) know that overflow of fixnums is a very
common source of bad bugs, so they offer optional run-time
tests to assignments and numerical operations. D too will
eventually need those.
