    """Abstraction of integral numeric types. That is, types
       with no fractional part, including [[Integer]].

       The division operation for integral numeric types results
       in a remainder. Therefore, integral numeric types have
       [[an operation|remainder]], denoted by the _remainder_
       operator `%`, to determine the remainder of any division
       operation.

           if (n%2==0) {
               print("Even!");
           }

       Division and the remainder operation should satisfy:

       - `x == (x/y)*y + x%y`

       for any instance `y` other than `0`.

       All `Integral` numeric types are also [[Enumerable]], so
       ranges of integral values may be produced using the
       [[measure]] and [[span]] operators.

           // Iterate from 0 to 100 inclusive
           for (i in 0..100) {
               print("The square of ``i`` is ``i^2``");
           }

           // Iterate all indices of the array,
           // from 0 to array.size-1
           for (i in 0:array.size) {
               print(array[i]);
           }"""
