Abstract

A first value of a first data type is obtained as input. A second value of a second data type is obtained based at least in part on the first value. The second value is determined to match the first value without losing precision. The second value is determined to be greater than a maximum value for a third data type, and less than or equal to a maximum value for a fourth data type. A marker value is stored in a first storage location, the marker value indicating that a second storage location holds a value of the fourth data type. The second value is stored in the second storage location as the fourth data type.
