This package defines several useful constants having to with numbers.
-@defvar most-positive-fixnum
-This constant equals the largest value a Lisp integer can hold.
-It is typically @code{2^23-1} or @code{2^25-1}.

-@defvar most-negative-fixnum
-This constant equals the smallest (most negative) value a Lisp
-integer can hold.

The following parameters have to do with floating-point numbers.
This package determines their values by exercising the computer's
floating-point arithmetic in various ways. Because this operation
