 3.6.2 Number Constants
 ----------------------
 
 `as' distinguishes three kinds of numbers according to how they are
 stored in the target machine.  _Integers_ are numbers that would fit
 into an `int' in the C language.  _Bignums_ are integers, but they are
 stored in more than 32 bits.  _Flonums_ are floating point numbers,
 described below.
