Conversions from int to (u)int and vice versa.
 On 32-bit computers, the type <code class="code">int</code> can hold 31-bit signed integers
 (including the sign, i.e. one bit cannot be used).
 On 64-bit computers, the type <code class="code">int</code> can hold 63-bit signed integers
 (including the sign, i.e. one bit cannot be used).
 The <code class="code">int_of_xxx</code> functions raise <code class="code">Cannot_represent</code> if the number to
 convert is too big (or too small) to be represented as <code class="code">int</code>. Note
 that this depends on the word size of your architecture.<br>
