Sorry, I have to stop you there as the entire premise of your post is
clearly wrong. "int" is not "an approximation of real numbers", it's
a model of the mathematical concept "integers", and it's not an
approximation, and since the long/int unification you can't even
overflow it as I understand things (barring ridiculous situations like
running out of memory).
