If Naturals had been sufficient for me I wouldn't have done my own implementation (I'm unaware of any other implementation of Integers). And there is certainly a lot of value to the clearer error messages from a decimal representation.

I did a balanced-base-three (digits are 0, and +- 1) representation to get negative "decimals". Again, for a proof-of-concept dimensional analysis arithmetic. No problem with the stack, but the error messages are still less than clear. -- Aaron Denney -><-
