Description

Unfortunately, Ruby only provides constants for the minimum and maximum values of floats. This plugins adds additional constants for Integer classes, specifically Fixnum and Bignum, that gives you the ability to find the minimum and maximum values.

Usage

Fixnum

On 32-bit systems:

  >> Fixnum::MIN
  => -1073741824
  >> Fixnum::MAX
  => 1073741823

On 64-bit systems:

  >> Integer::MIN
  => -4611686018427387904
  >> Integer::MAX
  => 4611686018427387903

Bignum

  >> Bignum::MIN
  => -Infinity
  >> Bignum::MAX
  => Infinity
