Overflow Semantics Cheatsheet

C / C++

Signed overflow is UB in C/C++; unsigned wraps mod 2^N.

Rust

Debug: panics. Release: wraps mod 2^N. Use wrapping_* / checked_* / saturating_*.

Always wraps mod 2^N (two's complement). Use math/bits Add/Sub/etc. for checked ops.

Java

Always wraps mod 2^N. No unsigned types in Java. Use Math.addExact for checked ops.

unchecked: wraps mod 2^N. checked: throws OverflowException.

JavaScript

IEEE-754 double. Integers beyond ±2^53-1 lose precision (silently). Use BigInt instead.

Python

Arbitrary-precision. No overflow; memory-limited only.

Honesty note: Reflects documented semantics. Compiler flags, optimization levels, and UB mean real programs can still differ — always test on your target.

FAQ

Which integer types and languages does the reference cover?

All common fixed-width integer types across seven languages: C/C++ (int8_t/uint8_t/int16_t/uint16_t/int32_t/uint32_t/int64_t/uint64_t, char/short/int/long/long long, size_t, intptr_t/uintptr_t, ptrdiff_t), Rust (i8/u8/i16/u16/i32/u32/i64/u64/i128/u128/isize/usize), Go (int8/uint8/int16/uint16/int32/uint32/int64/uint64, int/uint/uintptr, byte/rune), Java (byte/short/int/long/char — no unsigned), C# (sbyte/byte/short/ushort/int/uint/long/ulong, nint/nuint), JavaScript (Number safe-int range and BigInt), and Python (int — arbitrary precision). Each entry shows the exact min/max using BigInt, the bit width, signed/unsigned flag, the printf-style format specifier where applicable, and the language's named constant (e.g. INT_MAX, i32::MAX, math.MaxInt32, Integer.MAX_VALUE).

How does the overflow calculator work?

Type any integer (decimal, 0x hex, 0b binary or 0o octal) and pick a target type. The calculator tells you whether the value fits in that type and, if it doesn't, exactly how each language would treat it: C/C++ signed overflow is undefined behavior (UB) while unsigned wraps modulo 2^N; Rust panics in debug builds and wraps modulo 2^N in release; Go always wraps modulo 2^N for both signed and unsigned; Java wraps modulo 2^N (two's complement) and has no unsigned types; C# wraps in unchecked context and throws OverflowException in checked context; JavaScript Number loses precision beyond 2^53; Python ints never overflow. The wrapped/stored bit pattern is shown in decimal, hex and binary.

Are the min/max values really exact for 64-bit and 128-bit types?

Yes. All range math is done with native JavaScript BigInt, so int64's −9,223,372,036,854,775,808 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807, uint64's 0 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615, and even Rust's i128/u128 (−170,141,183,460,469,231,731,687,303,715,884,105,728 to 170,141,183,460,469,231,731,687,303,715,884,105,727) are computed exactly. There is no floating-point loss anywhere — BigInt is exact by definition.

Does it really reflect how each language behaves on overflow?

It reflects the documented semantics. C/C++ signed overflow is UB by the standard (so we label it as such, even if many compilers wrap in practice); C/C++ unsigned arithmetic is defined to wrap mod 2^N. Rust's debug-panic vs release-wrap distinction is encoded. Go's spec defines two's-complement wrapping for both signed and unsigned. Java's JLS defines wraparound. C# distinguishes checked vs unchecked arithmetic. JS Number follows IEEE-754 double precision (53-bit mantissa), and BigInt is unbounded. Python ints are unbounded. Real programs can still differ due to compiler flags, optimization levels, UB exploitation, or compiler-specific intrinsics — always verify on your target.

What extra features does this tool have versus a static cheatsheet?

(1) Cross-language comparison view for one type family (e.g. int32 → C int32_t, Rust i32, Go int32, Java int, C# int). (2) Interactive overflow simulator with per-language semantics labels (wrap/panic/UB/saturate/promote-to-bignum). (3) Copyable language constants (INT_MAX, i32::MAX, math.MaxInt32, Integer.MAX_VALUE, int.MaxValue, …) with one-click copy. (4) printf / fmt / format-specifier column. (5) Input accepts decimal, 0x hex, 0b binary, 0o octal with underscores. (6) Signed/unsigned toggle for the calculator. (7) Search/filter across type names, languages and bit widths. (8) Result of overflow shown in decimal, hex and binary. (9) History (localStorage, last 20, clickable to reload). (10) Shareable URL with the input + type + language encoded. (11) Bit-grid visualization of the wrapped result. (12) Overflow semantics cheatsheet card per language. 100% client-side and offline — your numbers never leave the device.
