Types phase 2 — the "money problem". A splice-on-demand bignum engine
(runtime/native/bignum.ludic, self-contained, only intrinsics) exposed as
two namespaces:
- BigInt.* — arbitrary-precision integer (sign-magnitude, base-1e9 limbs):
from/parse, add/sub/mul/pow, div/mod (by int), cmp/eq/is_zero, to_int, str.
For idle counters and exact huge currencies that overflow a 32/64-bit int.
- Decimal.* — exact base-10 fixed point (BigInt mantissa + decimal scale):
from/parse, exact add/sub/mul, cmp/eq, scale/rescale (truncate), str.
So 0.10 + 0.20 is exactly 0.30 — no binary rounding.
Both exact => deterministic; no f32/f64. Wired: parser splice trigger
(g_uses_bignum), emit_call dispatch, reseeded seed, a self-asserting example
(examples/library/bignum.ludic + feat_case), and per-symbol docs + inventory.
All suites green incl. golden renders byte-identical and the bootstrap fixpoint.
