</div></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Yes: BIGNUM is defined as "INTEGER, but not FIXNUM". (INTEGER <a href="tel:2147483648" value="+12147483648" target="_blank">2147483648</a>) is much more restrictive than BIGNUM: it disallows all negative values which are part of the BIGNUM definition.</div>
