Description
For several procs, it would be useful to have the value of MAXINT available.
A query comes up with:
gorzelc@linux:~/Desktop/Singular/3-1-0/LIB> grep 2147483647 *.lib aksaka.lib atkins.lib crypto.lib general.lib noether.lib primitiv.lib
Authors of a library then had not to declare
int MAXINT = 2147483647; // this is int(bigint(2)^32 - 1)
but could access
either directly a (built)variable
MAXINT;
or could get the value by
system("MAXINT");
This would also keep the relevant procs up-to-date when
up-grading from 32- to 64-bit machines.
