The built-in ``QlBuiltins`` module provides an **experimental** type ``BigInt`` of arbitrary-precision integers.

This type is not available in the CodeQL CLI by default, but you can enable it by passing the ``--allow-experimental=bigint``

The built-in ``QlBuiltins`` module provides a type ``BigInt`` of arbitrary-range integers.
|

|

Unlike ``int`` and ``float``, there is no automatic conversion between ``BigInt`` and other numeric types.

Instead, big integers can be constructed using the ``.toBigInt()`` methods of ``int`` and ``string``.

The database includes a number of opaque entity values. Each such value has a type that is one of the database types, and an identifying integer. An entity value is written as the name of its database type followed by its identifying integer in parentheses. For example, ``@tree(12)``, ``@person(16)``, and ``@location(38132)`` are entity values. The identifying integers are left opaque to programmers in this specification, so an implementation of QL is free to use some other set of countable labels to identify its entities.

QL has a range of built-in operations defined on primitive types. These are available by using dispatch on expressions of the appropriate type. For example, ``1.toString()`` is the string representation of the integer constant ``1``. For a full list of built-in operations available in QL, see the

section on `built-ins <https://codeql.github.com/docs/ql-language-reference/ql-language-specification/#built-ins>`__ in the QL language specification.
