NumType

Number types classify numeric values.

The types i32 and i64 classify 32 and 64 bit integers, respectively. Integers are not inherently signed or unsigned, their interpretation is determined by individual operations.

The types f32 and f64 classify 32 and 64 bit floating-point data, respectively. They correspond to the respective binary floating-point representations, also known as single and double precision, as defined by the IEEE 754 standard (Section 3.3).

Number types are transparent, meaning that their bit patterns can be observed. Values of number type can be stored in memories.
