]> Section 6.2.1 of the manual is useful: Integer values are integer numbers from -2^30 to 2^30-1, that is -1073741824 to 1073741823. The implementation may support a wider range of integer values: on 64-bit platforms, the current implementation supports integers ranging from -2^62 to 2^62-1. You are experiencing overflow. One bit of integers are used for tagging purposes (if I recall correctly). Int32 is a boxed type.
