#! \title{
#!    A S3 class for vectors of 64bit integers
#! }
#! \description{
#! Package 'bit64' provides fast serializable S3 atomic 64bit (signed) integers 
#! that can be used in vectors, matrices, arrays and data.frames. Methods are 
#! available for coercion from and to logicals, integers, doubles, characters  
#! and factors as well as many elementwise and summary functions. 
#! \cr
#! \bold{Version 0.8}
#! With 'integer64' vectors you can store very large integers at the expense
#! of 64 bits, which is by factor 7 better than 'int64' from package 'int64'.
#! Due to the smaller memory footprint, the atomic vector architecture and  
#! using only S3 instead of S4 classes, most operations are one to three orders 
#! of magnitude faster: Example speedups are 4x for serialization, 250x for 
#! adding, 900x for coercion and 2000x for object creation. Also 'integer64' 
#! avoids an ongoing (potentially infinite) penalty for garbage collection
#! observed during existence of 'int64' objects (see code in example section). 
#! \cr
#! \bold{Version 0.9}
#! Package 'bit64' - which extends R with fast 64-bit integers - now has fast
#! (single-threaded) implementations the most important univariate algorithmic 
#! operations (those based on hashing and sorting). We now have methods for 
#! 'match', '%in%', 'duplicated', 'unique', 'table', 'sort', 'order', 'rank', 
#! 'quantile', 'median' and 'summary'. Regarding data management we also have 
#! novel generics 'unipos' (positions of the unique values), 'tiepos' (
#! positions of ties), 'keypos' (positions of foreign keys in a sorted 
#! dimension table) and derived methods 'as.factor' and 'as.ordered'. This 64-
#! bit functionality is implemented carefully to be not slower than the 
#! respective 32-bit operations in Base R and also to avoid outlying waiting 
#! times observed with 'order', 'rank' and 'table' (speedup factors 20/16/200 
#! respective). This increases the dataset size with wich we can work truly 
#! interactive. The speed is achieved by simple heuristic optimizers in high-
#! level functions choosing the best from multiple low-level algorithms and 
#! further taking advantage of a novel caching if activated. In an example R 
#! session using a couple of these operations the 64-bit integers performed 22x
#!  faster than base 32-bit integers, hash-caching improved this to 24x, 
#! sortorder-caching was most efficient with 38x (caching hashing and sorting 
#! is not worth it with 32x at duplicated RAM consumption).

#! \section{Design considerations}{
#!   64 bit integers are related to big data: we need them to overcome address space limitations. 
#!   Therefore performance of the 64 bit integer type is critical. 
#!   In the S language -- designed in 1975 -- atomic objects were defined to be vectors for a couple of good reasons:
#!   simplicity, option for implicit parallelization, good cache locality. 
#!   In recent years many analytical databases have learnt that lesson: column based data bases provide superior performance
#!   for many applications, the result are products such as MonetDB, Sybase IQ, Vertica, Exasol, Ingres Vectorwise.
#!   If we introduce 64 bit integers not natively in Base R but as an external package, we should at least strive to 
#!   make them as 'basic' as possible. Therefore the design choice of bit64 not only differs from \code{int64}, it is obvious: 
#!   Like the other atomic types in Base R, we model data type 'integer64' as a contiguous \code{\link{atomic}} vector in memory, 
#!   and we use the more basic \code{\link{S3}} class system, not \code{\link{S4}}. Like package \code{int64} we want our 'integer64' to be \code{\link{serialize}able}, 
#!   therefore we also use an existing data type as the basis. Again the choice is obvious: R has only one 64 bit data type: doubles.
#!   By using \code{\link{double}s}, \code{integer64} \code{\link{inherits}} some functionality such as \code{\link{is.atomic}}, \code{\link{length}}, 
#!   \code{\link{length<-}}, \code{\link{names}}, \code{\link{names<-}}, \code{\link{dim}}, \code{\link{dim<-}}, \code{\link{dimnames}}, \code{\link{dimnames}}.
#!   \cr
#!   Our R level functions strictly follow the functional programming paragdim: 
#!   no modification of arguments or other sideffects. Before version 0.93  we internally deviated from the strict paradigm
#!   in order to boost performance. Our C functions do not create new return values, 
#!   instead we pass-in the memory to be returned as an argument. This gives us the freedom to apply the C-function 
#!   to new or old vectors, which helps to avoid unnecessary memory allocation, unnecessary copying and unnessary garbage collection.
#!   Prior to 0.93 \emph{within} our R functions we also deviated from conventional R programming by not using \code{\link{attr<-}} and \code{\link{attributes<-}} 
#!   because they always did new memory allocation and copying in older R versions. If we wanted to set attributes of return values that we have freshly created,
#!   we instead used functions \code{\link[bit]{setattr}} and \code{\link[bit]{setattributes}} from package \code{\link[bit]{bit}}. 
#!   From version 0.93 \code{\link[bit]{setattr}} is only used for manipulating \code{\link{cache}} objects, in \code{\link{ramsort.integer64}} and \code{\link{sort.integer64}} and in \code{\link{as.data.frame.integer64}}.
#! }
#! \section{Arithmetic precision and coercion}{
#!   The fact that we introduce 64 bit long long integers -- without introducing 128-bit long doubles -- creates some subtle challenges:
#!   Unlike 32 bit \code{\link{integer}s}, the \code{integer64} are no longer a proper subset of \code{\link{double}}. 
#!   If a binary arithmetic operation does involve a \code{double} and a \code{integer}, it is a no-brainer to return \code{double} 
#!   without loss of information. If an \code{integer64} meets a \code{double}, it is not trivial what type to return. 
#!   Switching to \code{integer64} limits our ability to represent very large numbers, switching to \code{double} limits our ability 
#!   to distinguish \code{x} from \code{x+1}. Since the latter is the purpose of introducing 64 bit integers, we usually return \code{integer64} 
#!   from functions involving \code{integer64}, for example in \code{\link[=c.integer64]{c}}, \code{\link[=cbind.integer64]{cbind}} 
#!   and \code{\link[=rbind.integer64]{rbind}}. 
#!   \cr
#!   Different from Base R, our operators \code{\link[=+.integer64]{+}}, 
#!   \code{\link[=-.integer64]{-}}, \code{\link[=\%/\%.integer64]{\%/\%}} and \code{\link[=\%\%.integer64]{\%\%}} coerce their arguments to 
#!   \code{integer64} and always return \code{integer64}. 
#!   \cr
#!   The multiplication operator \code{\link[=*.integer64]{*}} coerces its first argument to \code{integer64} 
#!   but allows its second argument to be also \code{double}: the second argument is internaly coerced to 'long double' 
#!   and the result of the multiplication is returned as \code{integer64}. 
#!   \cr
#!   The division \code{\link[=/.integer64]{/}} and power \code{\link[=^.integer64]{^}} operators also coerce their first argument to \code{integer64} 
#!   and coerce internally their second argument to 'long double', they return as \code{double}, like \code{\link[=sqrt.integer64]{sqrt}}, 
#!   \code{\link[=log.integer64]{log}}, \code{\link[=log2.integer64]{log2}} and \code{\link[=log10.integer64]{log10}} do.

#! \section{Creating and testing S3 class 'integer64'}{
#!   Our creator function \code{integer64} takes an argument \code{length}, creates an atomic double vector of this length,
#!   attaches an S3 class attribute 'integer64' to it, and that's it. We simply rely on S3 method dispatch and interpret those 
#!   64bit elements as 'long long int'. 
#!   \cr
#!  \code{\link{is.double}} currently returns TRUE for \code{integer64} and might return FALSE in a later release.
#!  Consider \code{is.double} to have undefined behaviour and do query \code{is.integer64} \emph{before} querying \code{is.double}.
#! %As a second line of defense against misinterpretation we make \code{\link{is.double}}
#! %return \code{FALSE} by making it S3 generic and adding a method \code{\link{as.double.integer64}}. 
#!   The methods \code{\link{is.integer64}} and \code{\link{is.vector}} both return \code{TRUE} for \code{integer64}. 
#!  Note that we did not patch \code{\link{storage.mode}} and \code{\link{typeof}}, which both continue returning 'double' 
#!  Like for 32 bit \code{\link{integer}}, \code{\link{mode}} returns 'numeric' and \code{\link{as.double}}) tries coercing to \code{\link{double}}).
#!  It is likely that 'integer64' becomes a \code{\link[ff]{vmode}} in package \code{\link[ff]{ff}}. 
#!  \cr
#!  Further methods for creating \code{integer64} are \code{\link[=range.integer64]{range}} which returns the range of the data type if calles without arguments,
#!  \code{\link[=rep.integer64]{rep}}, \code{\link[=seq.integer64]{seq}}. 
#!  \cr
#!  For all available methods on \code{integer64} vectors see the index below and the examples.

#! \section{Limitations inherited from implementing 64 bit integers via an external package}{
#!   \itemize{
#!     \item \bold{vector size} of atomic vectors is still limited to \code{\link{.Machine}$integer.max}. 
#!     However, external memory extending packages such as \code{\link[ff]{ff}} or \code{bigmemory} 
#!     can extend their address space now with \code{integer64}. Having 64 bit integers also help 
#!     with those not so obvious address issues that arise once we exchange data with SQL databases 
#!     and datawarehouses, which use big integers as surrogate keys, e.g. on indexed primary key columns.
#!     This puts R into a relatively strong position compared to certain commercial statistical 
#!     softwares, which sell database connectivity but neither have the range of 64 bit integers, 
#!     nor have integers at all, nor have a single numeric data type in their macro-glue-language.
#!
#!     \item \bold{literals} such as \code{123LL} would require changes to Base R, up to then we need to write (and call) 
#!     \code{as.integer64(123L)} or \code{as.integer64(123)} or \code{as.integer64('123')}. 
#!     Only the latter allows to specify numbers beyond Base R's numeric data types and therefore is the recommended
#!     way to use -- using only one way may facilitate migrating code to literals at a later stage.
#!
#!   }
#! }
#! \section{Limitations inherited from Base R, Core team, can you change this?}{
#!   \itemize{
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{identical}}} with default parameters does not distinguish all bit-patterns of doubles. 
#!     For testing purposes we provide a wrapper \code{\link{identical.integer64}} that will distinguish all bit-patterns.
#!     It would be desireable to have a single call of \code{\link{identical}} handle both, \code{\link{double}} and \code{integer64}.
#! 
#!     \item the \bold{colon} operator \code{\link{:}} officially does not dispatches S3 methods, however, we have made it generic
#!      \preformatted{
#!      from <- lim.integer64()[1]
#!      to <- from+99
#!      from:to
#!    }
#!    As a limitation remains: it will only dispatch at its first argument \code{from} but not at its second \code{to}.
#! 
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{is.double}}} does not dispatches S3 methods, However, we have made it generic 
#!		and it will return \code{FALSE} on \code{integer64}.
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{c}}} only dispatches \code{\link{c.integer64}} if the first argument is \code{integer64}
#!     and it does not recursively dispatch the proper method when called with argument \code{recursive=TRUE}
#!     Therefore \preformatted{
#!       c(list(integer64,integer64))
#!     }
#!      does not work and for now you can only call \preformatted{
#!        c.integer64(list(x,x))
#!      }
#!
#!     \item \bold{generic binary operators} fail to dispatch *any* user-defined S3 method 
#!     if the two arguments have two different S3 classes. For example we have two classes 
#!     \code{\link{bit}} and \code{\link{bitwhich}} sparsely representing boolean vectors 
#!     and we have methods \code{\link{&.bit}} and \code{\link{&.bitwhich}}. For an expression
#!     involving both as in \code{ bit & bitwhich}, none of the two methods is dispatched. 
#!     Instead a standard method is dispatched, which neither handles \code{\link{bit}} 
#!     nor \code{\link{bitwhich}}. Although it lacks symmetry, the better choice would be to 
#!     dispatch simply the method of the class of the first argument in case of class conflict. 
#!     This choice would allow authors of extension packages providing coherent behaviour 
#!     at least within their contributed classes. But as long as none of the package authors 
#!     methods is dispatched, he cannot handle the conflicting classes at all.
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{unlist}}} is not generic and if it were, we would face similar problems as with \code{c()}
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{vector}}} with argument \code{mode='integer64'} cannot work without adjustment of Base R
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{as.vector}}} with argument \code{mode='integer64'} cannot work without adjustment of Base R
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{is.vector}}} does not dispatch its method \code{\link{is.vector.integer64}}
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{mode<-}}} drops the class 'integer64' which is returned from \code{as.integer64}.
#!        Also it does not remove an existing class 'integer64' when assigning mode 'integer'. 
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{storage.mode<-}}} does not support external data types such as \code{as.integer64}
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{matrix}}} does drop the 'integer64' class attribute.
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{array}}}  does drop the 'integer64' class attribute. 
#!            In current R versions (1.15.1) this can be circumvented by activating the function 
#!						\code{as.vector.integer64} further down this file.
#!						However, the CRAN maintainer has requested to remove \code{as.vector.integer64}, 
#! 						even at the price of breaking previously working functionality of the package. 
#!
#!     \item \bold{\code{\link{str}}} does not print the values of \code{integer64} correctly
#!
#!   }
#! }
#! \section{further limitations}{
#!   \itemize{
#!     \item \bold{subscripting} non-existing elements and subscripting with \code{NA}s is currently not supported. 
#!     Such subscripting currently returns \code{9218868437227407266} instead of \code{NA} (the \code{NA} value of the underlying double code).
#!     Following the full R behaviour here would either destroy performance or require extensive C-coding. 
#!   }
#! }
#! \note{
#!    \code{integer64} are useful for handling database keys and exact counting in +-2^63.
#!    Do not use them as replacement for 32bit integers, integer64 are not
#!    supported for subscripting by R-core and they have different semantics 
#!    when combined with double. Do understand that \code{integer64} can only be
#!    useful over \code{double} if we do not coerce it to \code{double}. \cr
#!   \cr
#!   While \cr
#!   integer + double -> double + double -> double \cr
#!   or \cr
#!   1L + 0.5 -> 1.5 \cr 
#!   for additive operations we coerce to \code{integer64} \cr
#!   integer64 + double ->  integer64 + integer64 -> integer64 \cr
#!   hence \cr
#!   as.integer64(1) + 0.5 -> 1LL + 0LL -> 1LL \cr
#!   \cr
#!   see section "Arithmetic precision and coercion" above
#! }
#! \value{
#!   \code{integer64} returns a vector of 'integer64', 
#!    i.e. a vector of \code{\link{double}} decorated with class 'integer64'.
