 //! \file integer.h

 //! \brief Multiple precision integer with arithmetic operations

+//! \details The Integer class can represent positive and negative integers

+//!   with absolute value less than (256**sizeof(word))<sup>(256**sizeof(int))</sup>.

+//! \details Internally, the library uses a sign magnitude representation, and the class

+//!   has two data members. The first is a IntegerSecBlock (a SecBlock<word>) and it is

+//!   used to hold the representation. The second is a Sign, and its is used to track

+//!   the sign of the Integer.
