Also [posting this from a donut shop in a mysterious town in Washington where the bus stranded me] I know, objectively, it's probably performance/complexity optimal on modern CPUs to support only i32 and i64 types and not bother with (say) i8 or i16, but it still *bugs* me

When I started this "write 25 programs in 25 languages!" project I really did not expect how many times I'd find myself implementing atoi
EDIT: I mean, I *should* have, but I didn't

This post was supposed to have been inlined in this thread but I got distracted running to catch a bus and messed up. This isn't a bit I really am writing this thread at a series of bus stops today https://mastodon.social/@mcc/114622991386698840
(I want to emphasize this thread will make substantially less sense if you do not read at least the single post linked at this link)
