[swift-users] Where to report this bug?

[Alex Blewitt]

Int.min is the smallest negative value, and Int.max is the largest positive value (that fits in an Int). However, the absolute value of Int.min is larger than the absolute value of Int.max. So you can't convert Int.min into -Int.min because it's larger than Int.max.

In other words, this is expected behaviour :)

For example:

Int.min + Int.max = 1

If they were the same value, it would be zero.
