All numbers are stored on the data and alternate stacks encoded as little endian // with a sign bit. All numeric opcodes such as OP_ADD, OP_SUB, and OP_MUL, are only allowed to operate on 4-byte // integers in the range [-2^31 + 1, 2^31 - 1], however the results of numeric operations may overflow and remain valid // so long as they are not used as inputs to other numeric operations or otherwise interpreted as an integer. For // example, it is possible for OP_ADD to have 2^31 - 1 for its two operands resulting 2^32 - 2, which overflows, but is // still pushed to the stack as the result of the addition. That value can then be used as input to OP_VERIFY which will // succeed because the data is being interpreted as a boolean. However, if that same value were to be used as input to // another numeric opcode, such as OP_SUB, it must fail. This type handles the aforementioned requirements by storing // all numeric operation results as an int64 to handle overflow and provides the Hash method to get the serialized // representation (including values that overflow). Then, whenever data is interpreted as an integer, it is converted to // this type by using the makeScriptNum function which will return an error if the number is out of range or not // minimally encoded depending on parameters.
