+@cindex integer
+
+The C language defines several integer data types: integer, short integer,
+long integer, and character, all in both signed and unsigned varieties.
+The GNU C compiler extends the language to contain long long integers 
+as well.  
+@cindex signedness
+
+The C integer types were intended to allow code to be portable among
+machines with different inherent data sizes (word sizes), so each type
+may have different ranges on different machines.  The problem with
+this is that a program often needs to be written for a particular range
+of integers, and sometimes must be written for a particular size of
+storage, regardless of what machine the program runs on.
+
+To address this problem, the GNU C library contains C type definitions
+you can use to declare integers that meet your exact needs.  Because the
+GNU C library header files are customized to a specific machine, your
+program source code doesn't have to be.
+
+These @code{typedef}s are in @file{stdint.h}.
+@pindex stdint.h
+
+If you require that an integer be represented in exactly N bits, use one
+of the following types, with the obvious mapping to bit size and signedness:
+
+@itemize @w
+@item int8_t
+@item int16_t
+@item int32_t
+@item int64_t
+@item uint8_t
+@item uint16_t
+@item uint32_t
+@item uint64_t
+@end itemize
+
+If your C compiler and target machine do not allow integers of a certain
+size, the corresponding above type does not exist.
+
+If you don't need a specific storage size, but want the smallest data
+structure with @emph{at least} N bits, use one of these:
+
+@itemize @w
+@item int8_least_t
+@item int16_least_t
+@item int32_least_t
+@item int64_least_t
+@item uint8_least_t
+@item uint16_least_t
+@item uint32_least_t
+@item uint64_least_t
+@end itemize
+
+If you don't need a specific storage size, but want the data structure 
+that allows the fastest access while having at least N bits (and
+among data structures with the same access speed, the smallest one), use
+one of these:
+
+@itemize @w
+@item int8_fast_t
+@item int16_fast_t
+@item int32_fast_t
+@item int64_fast_t
+@item uint8_fast_t
+@item uint16_fast_t
+@item uint32_fast_t
+@item uint64_fast_t
+@end itemize
+
+If you want an integer with the widest range possible on the platform on 
+which it is being used, use one of the following.  If you use these,
+you should write code that takes into account the variable size and range
+of the integer.
+
+@itemize @w
+@item intmax_t
+@item uintmax_t
+@end itemize
+
+The GNU C library also provides macros that tell you the maximum and
+minimum possible values for each integer data type.  The macro names
+follow these examples: @code{INT32_MAX}, @code{UINT8_MAX},
+@code{INT_FAST32_MIN}, @code{INT_LEAST64_MIN}, @code{UINTMAX_MAX},
+@code{INTMAX_MAX}, @code{INTMAX_MIN}.  Note that there are no macros for
+unsigned integer minima.  These are always zero.
+@cindex maximum possible integer
+@cindex mininum possible integer
+
+There are similar macros for use with C's built in integer types which
+should come with your C compiler.  These are described in @ref{Data Type
+Measurements}.
+
+Don't forget you can use the C @code{sizeof} function with any of these
+data types to get the number of bytes of storage each uses.

+@cindex integer division functions
+
+This section describes functions for performing integer division.  These
+functions are redundant when GNU CC is used, because in GNU C the

+implementations, @samp{/} may round differently with negative arguments.

+The @code{memfrob} function converts an array of data to something
+unrecognizable and back again.  It is not encryption in its usual sense
+since it is easy for someone to convert the encrypted data back to clear
+text.  The transformation is analogous to Usenet's ``Rot13'' encryption
+method for obscuring offensive jokes from sensitive eyes and such.
+Unlike Rot13, @code{memfrob} works on arbitrary binary data, not just
+text.

+
+@code{memfrob} transforms (frobnicates) each byte of the data structure
+at @var{mem}, which is @var{length} bytes long, by bitwise exclusive
+oring it with binary 00101010.  It does the transformation in place and
+its return value is always @var{mem}.
+
+Note that @code{memfrob} a second time on the same data structure
+returns it to its original state.
+
+This is a good function for hiding information from someone who doesn't
+want to see it or doesn't want to see it very much.  To really prevent
+people from retrieving the information, use stronger encryption such as
+that described in @xref{Cryptographic Functions}.
