`BigInt` type. There are no numeric literal suffixes, such as `L`, `LL`, `U`, `UL`, `ULL` to indicate
unsigned and/or signed vs. unsigned. Decimal literals are always signed, and hexadecimal literals
(which start with `0x` like C/C++), are unsigned, unless when they encode more than 128 bits,
in which case they are of type ``BigInt``. Hexadecimal literals also, unlike C/C++/Java
in which case they are of type `BigInt`. Hexadecimal literals also, unlike C/C++/Java
and unlike decimal literals in Julia, have a type based on the *length* of the literal, including
leading 0s. For example, `0x0` and `0x00` have type [`UInt8`](@ref), `0x000` and `0x0000` have type
[`UInt16`](@ref), then literals with 5 to 8 hex digits have type `UInt32`, 9 to 16 hex digits type
