I have noticed, when I sum two numbers they give result that is bigger than max unsigned int 64 value.
Does Python has some limits for the numbers?

In Python 3, maximal integer number value is limited only by available memory.
Example program:
xxxxxxxxxx1
x = 12
while x < 1000000000000000000000:3
print(x, type(x))4
x *= 10Output:
xxxxxxxxxx1
1 <class 'int'>2
10 <class 'int'>3
100 <class 'int'>4
1000 <class 'int'>5
10000 <class 'int'>6
100000 <class 'int'>7
1000000 <class 'int'>8
10000000 <class 'int'>9
100000000 <class 'int'>10
1000000000 <class 'int'>11
10000000000 <class 'int'>12
100000000000 <class 'int'>13
1000000000000 <class 'int'>14
10000000000000 <class 'int'>15
100000000000000 <class 'int'>16
1000000000000000 <class 'int'>17
10000000000000000 <class 'int'>18
100000000000000000 <class 'int'>19
1000000000000000000 <class 'int'>20
10000000000000000000 <class 'int'>21
100000000000000000000 <class 'int'>Hint: Python 2 used
intandlongtypes, whereintused 32 bits andlongwas limited by available memory.
