I read all thread and conclude that developers want a one button
- 'do all what I need'.
As mentioned above, for example, python have a arbitrary int
(that implemented as C library ;)).
C can be used on many platforms. For each platform developer have
solution as library. Right way is creating something new instead
cutting something that exist.
Each platform have a own limitations: memory, execution time etc.
It's good if different platforms can communicate between each
other.
Not all algorithms consume a lots of memory or have needs in
arbitrary int.
In some cases we have + or -. Good/right way is "-" -> library
solution -> "+" .
Language features are fundamental features.
