+<h5>Overview:</h5>
+<p>The integer type is a very simple derived type that simply specifies an
+arbitrary bit width for the integer type desired. Any bit width from 1 bit to
+2^23-1 (about 8 million) can be specified.</p>
+
+<h5>Syntax:</h5>
+
+<pre>
+ iN
+</pre>
+
+<p>The number of bits the integer will occupy is specified by the <tt>N</tt>
+value.</p>
