BigInt

BigInt is a special numeric data type designed to handle values outside the range of Int and to perform high accuracy calculations.

BigInt variable has a size of 64 bytes (512 bits) and contains an integer between –2⁵¹¹ to 2⁵¹¹–1, inclusive. The weight of the value is 64.

⚠️ A BigInt variable can only be used inside a script. A callable function does not accept arguments of BigInt type and does not return a value of BigInt type. You can pass a big integer value as a string, then use the parseBigInt or parseBigIntValue functions.

BigInt Operations

The following operators support BigInt values:

• Arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, %, unary minus.
• Comparison operators: <, >, <=, and >=.
• Equality operators: == and !=.

Both operands should be BigInt.

The following functions operate BinInt values:

• fraction(BigInt, BigInt, BigInt): BigInt
• fraction(BigInt, BigInt, BigInt, Union): BigInt
• log(BigInt, Int, BigInt, Int, Int, Union): BigInt
• max(List[BigInt]): BigInt
• median(List[BigInt]): BigInt
• min(List[BigInt]): BigInt
• pow(BigInt, Int, BigInt, Int, Int, Union): BigInt
• parseBigInt(String): BigInt|Unit
• parseBigIntValue(String): BigInt
• toBigInt(ByteVector): BigInt
• toBigInt(ByteVector, Int, Int): BigInt
• toBigInt(Int): BigInt
• toBytes(BigInt): ByteVector
• toInt(BigInt): Int
• toString(BigInt): String
