Are there any library that dynamically allocates memory for integers in c++ ?

Question

I want integer types in c++ function like it's in Python. There is no limit. The size and range of ints are dynamic in Python. How can I achieve this in cpp.

Answer 1

Yes, Ipang you guessed right

Answer 2

I don't believe this is possible in C++ which is a statically typed language where when you declare an integer variable, a fixed number of bytes is allocated, depending on the architecture.

Answer 3

I don't want an array of ints. I want an dynamic int type. With dynamic size and width.

Bro, as I understand it, it was meant that way in the language. It was designed with small systems considerations. Bigger integers means more memory for each instance, I guess that wasn't the plan.

But maybe others can suggest you some ways into it, by means of library or something else. I'm sticking around to learn ...

Answer 5

Here is a specific problem.
How can I store an int of size 32 bytes in cpp or more bytes as per my requirements ?

Answer 6

Are you referring to the size and/or range width of the `int` type? as if whether C++ `int` can behave like Python `int`?

Answer 7

Can we make library to achieve that in C
