-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.PP
-These procedures are used to create, modify, and read Tcl values
-that hold integral values.
-.PP
-The different routines exist to accommodate different integral types in C
-with which values might be exchanged. The C integral types for which Tcl
-provides value exchange routines are \fBint\fR, \fBlong int\fR,
-\fBTcl_WideInt\fR, and \fBmp_int\fR. The \fBint\fR and \fBlong int\fR types
-are provided by the C language standard. The \fBTcl_WideInt\fR type is a
-typedef defined to be whatever signed integral type covers at least the
-64-bit integer range (-9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807). Depending
-on the platform and the C compiler, the actual type might be
-\fBlong int\fR, \fBlong long int\fR, \fB__int64\fR, or something else.
-The \fBmp_int\fR type is a multiple-precision integer type defined
-by the LibTomMath multiple-precision integer library.
-.PP
-The \fBTcl_NewIntObj\fR, \fBTcl_NewLongObj\fR, \fBTcl_NewWideIntObj\fR,
-and \fBTcl_NewBignumObj\fR routines each create and return a new
-Tcl value initialized to the integral value of the argument. The
-returned Tcl value is unshared.
-.PP
-The \fBTcl_SetIntObj\fR, \fBTcl_SetLongObj\fR, \fBTcl_SetWideIntObj\fR,
-and \fBTcl_SetBignumObj\fR routines each set the value of an existing
-Tcl value pointed to by \fIobjPtr\fR to the integral value provided
-by the other argument. The \fIobjPtr\fR argument must point to an
-unshared Tcl value. Any attempt to set the value of a shared Tcl value
-violates Tcl's copy-on-write policy. Any existing string representation
-or internal representation in the unshared Tcl value will be freed
-as a consequence of setting the new value.
-.PP
-The \fBTcl_GetIntFromObj\fR, \fBTcl_GetLongFromObj\fR,
-\fBTcl_GetWideIntFromObj\fR, \fBTcl_GetBignumFromObj\fR, and
-\fBTcl_TakeBignumFromObj\fR routines attempt to retrieve an integral
-value of the appropriate type from the Tcl value \fIobjPtr\fR. If the
-attempt succeeds, then \fBTCL_OK\fR is returned, and the value is
-written to the storage provided by the caller. The attempt might
-fail if \fIobjPtr\fR does not hold an integral value, or if the
-value exceeds the range of the target type. If the attempt fails,
-then \fBTCL_ERROR\fR is returned, and if \fIinterp\fR is non-NULL,
-an error message is left in \fIinterp\fR. The \fBTcl_ObjType\fR
-of \fIobjPtr\fR may be changed to make subsequent calls to the
-same routine more efficient. Unlike the other functions,
-\fBTcl_TakeBignumFromObj\fR may set the content of the Tcl value
-\fIobjPtr\fR to an empty string in the process of retrieving the
-multiple-precision integer value.
-.PP
-The choice between \fBTcl_GetBignumFromObj\fR and
-\fBTcl_TakeBignumFromObj\fR is governed by how the caller will
-continue to use \fIobjPtr\fR. If after the \fBmp_int\fR value
-is retrieved from \fIobjPtr\fR, the caller will make no more
-use of \fIobjPtr\fR, then using \fBTcl_TakeBignumFromObj\fR
-permits Tcl to detect when an unshared \fIobjPtr\fR permits the
-value to be moved instead of copied, which should be more efficient.
-If anything later in the caller requires
-\fIobjPtr\fR to continue to hold the same value, then
-\fBTcl_GetBignumFromObj\fR must be chosen.
-.PP
-The \fBTcl_InitBignumFromDouble\fR routine is a utility procedure
-that extracts the integer part of \fIdoubleValue\fR and stores that
-integer value in the \fBmp_int\fR value \fIbigValue\fR.
