# <!-- rdoc-file=numeric.c -->
# Numeric is the class from which all higher-level numeric classes should
# inherit.
#
# Numeric allows instantiation of heap-allocated objects. Other core numeric
# classes such as Integer are implemented as immediates, which means that each
# Integer is a single immutable object which is always passed by value.
#
#     a = 1
#     1.object_id == a.object_id   #=> true
#
# There can only ever be one instance of the integer `1`, for example. Ruby
# ensures this by preventing instantiation. If duplication is attempted, the
# same instance is returned.
#
#     Integer.new(1)                   #=> NoMethodError: undefined method `new' for Integer:Class
#     1.dup                            #=> 1
#     1.object_id == 1.dup.object_id   #=> true
#
# For this reason, Numeric should be used when defining other numeric classes.
#
# Classes which inherit from Numeric must implement `coerce`, which returns a
# two-member Array containing an object that has been coerced into an instance
# of the new class and `self` (see #coerce).
#
# Inheriting classes should also implement arithmetic operator methods (`+`,
# `-`, `*` and `/`) and the `<=>` operator (see Comparable). These methods may
# rely on `coerce` to ensure interoperability with instances of other numeric
# classes.
#

  # Generates a sequence of numbers; with a block given, traverses the sequence.

  # this implementation.

  # A quick example:
  #
  #     squares = []
  #     1.step(by: 2, to: 10) {|i| squares.push(i*i) }
  #     squares # => [1, 9, 25, 49, 81]
  #
  # The generated sequence:
  #
  # *   Begins with `self`.
  # *   Continues at intervals of `by` (which may not be zero).
  # *   Ends with the last number that is within or equal to `to`; that is, less
  #     than or equal to `to` if `by` is positive, greater than or equal to `to`
  #     if `by` is negative. If `to` is `nil`, the sequence is of infinite length.
  #
  # If a block is given, calls the block with each number in the sequence; returns
  # `self`. If no block is given, returns an Enumerator::ArithmeticSequence.

  # **Implementation Notes**
  #
  # If all the arguments are integers, the loop operates using an integer counter.
  #
  # If any of the arguments are floating point numbers, all are converted to
  # floats, and the loop is executed *floor(n + n*Float::EPSILON) + 1* times,
  # where *n = (limit - self)/step*.
