[−][src]Module bigbit::headbyte
The Head Byte format, capable of storing integers and fractions up to ±1.34078079e+281.
It's recommended to use this format instead of Extended Head Byte if you're accepting numbers from potentially untrusted locations, since Head Byte imposes a size limit (which is still extremely big, suiting most use cases) while Extended Head Byte does not.
