Now, you're being a bit vague. There's no such thing - in my
knowledge - as an 'unlimited number integer'. It doesn't even make sense.
It's like saying "I wish I had a 'southwise tree grey'".
Don't do that. Nonsense is bad.
Just determine the upper range of the variable you're attempting
to save. Either find a type that can represent that range, or generate a
new one by patchwork if existing types don't measure up.
