New integer types I’d like to see

• ac_types

  2 105 3.2 C++

  Algorithmic C Datatypes

  

This is probably not what you're looking for because it might not be high performance. But in hardware synthesis/modeling, we use the so called "AC data types" and I just googled that and found it on Github.

https://github.com/hlslibs/ac_types

Arbitrary bit length, symmetrical and unsymmetrical, rounding and wraparound behaviour specifiable etc. etc.

• go

  2,067 119,564 10.0 Go

  The Go programming language

  

This is being considered for Go 2: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/19623

Personally I'm wary of it: it's not hard to think of adversarial scenarios where this could lead to OOM. On the other hand, adversarially overflowing an int can cause plenty of havoc too...
