<h3 id="Staying_in_64-bit_ranges">Staying in 64-bit ranges</h3>

<p>The <code>BigInt.asUintN()</code> method can be useful to stay in the range of 64-bit arithmetic.</p>

<pre class="brush: js">const max = 2n ** 64n - 1n;

BigInt.asUintN(64, max);
// ↪ 18446744073709551615n

BigInt.asUintN(64, max + 1n);
// ↪ 0n
// zero because of overflow</pre>
