// Template class numeric_traits<Number> --
//
//    Supplies:
//
//      typedef difference_type -- a type used to represent the difference
//      between any two values of Number.
//
//    Support:
//      1. Not all specializations are supplied
//
//      2. Use of specializations that are not supplied will cause a
//      compile-time error
//
//      3. Users are free to specialize numeric_traits for any type.
//
//      4. Right now, specializations are only supplied for integer types.
//
//      5. On implementations which do not supply compile-time constants in
//      std::numeric_limits<>, only specializations for built-in integer types
//      are supplied.
//
//      6. Handling of numbers whose range of representation is at least as
//      great as boost::intmax_t can cause some differences to be
//      unrepresentable in difference_type:
//
//        Number    difference_type
//        ------    ---------------
//        signed    Number
//        unsigned  intmax_t
//
// template <class Number> typename numeric_traits<Number>::difference_type
// numeric_distance(Number x, Number y)
//    computes (y - x), attempting to avoid overflows.
//

// See http://www.boost.org for most recent version including documentation.

// Revision History
// 11 Feb 2001 - Use BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT (David Abrahams)
// 11 Feb 2001 - Rolled back ineffective Borland-specific code
//               (David Abrahams)
// 10 Feb 2001 - Rolled in supposed Borland fixes from John Maddock, but
//               not seeing any improvement yet (David Abrahams)
// 06 Feb 2001 - Factored if_true out into boost/detail/select_type.hpp
//               (David Abrahams)
// 23 Jan 2001 - Fixed logic of difference_type selection, which was
//               completely wack. In the process, added digit_traits<>
//               to compute the number of digits in intmax_t even when
//               not supplied by numeric_limits<>. (David Abrahams)
// 21 Jan 2001 - Created (David Abrahams)
