    In my view, the Int.. types can only be used to have an error generated if a number is outside its range (see below), except for Int64 which is the general type for whole numbers.

     

    Int8: -256 - +255

    Int16: -32,768 - +32,767

    Int32: -2,147,483,648 – +2,147,483,647

    Int64: -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 - +9,223,372,036,854,775,807
