Infinite integer in Python

Taken from here: https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Infinity-and-NaN.html

IEEE 754 floating point numbers can represent positive or negative infinity, and NaN (not a number)

That is, the representation of float and Decimal can store these special values. However, there is nothing within the basic type int that can store the same. As you exceed the limit of 2^32 in an unsigned 32-bit int, you simply roll over to 0 again.

If you want, you could create a class containing an integer which could feature the possibility of infinite values.
