+Plain Integer Objects
+---------------------
+
+.. index:: object: integer
+
+
+.. ctype:: PyIntObject
+
+   This subtype of :ctype:`PyObject` represents a Python integer object.
+
+
+.. cvar:: PyTypeObject PyInt_Type
+
+   .. index:: single: IntType (in modules types)
+
+   This instance of :ctype:`PyTypeObject` represents the Python plain integer type.
+   This is the same object as ``int`` and ``types.IntType``.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: int PyInt_Check(PyObject *o)
+
+   Return true if *o* is of type :cdata:`PyInt_Type` or a subtype of
+   :cdata:`PyInt_Type`.
+
+   .. versionchanged:: 2.2
+      Allowed subtypes to be accepted.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: int PyInt_CheckExact(PyObject *o)
+
+   Return true if *o* is of type :cdata:`PyInt_Type`, but not a subtype of
+   :cdata:`PyInt_Type`.
+
+   .. versionadded:: 2.2
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyInt_FromString(char *str, char **pend, int base)
+
+   Return a new :ctype:`PyIntObject` or :ctype:`PyLongObject` based on the string
+   value in *str*, which is interpreted according to the radix in *base*.  If
+   *pend* is non-*NULL*, ``*pend`` will point to the first character in *str* which
+   follows the representation of the number.  If *base* is ``0``, the radix will be
+   determined based on the leading characters of *str*: if *str* starts with
+   ``'0x'`` or ``'0X'``, radix 16 will be used; if *str* starts with ``'0'``, radix
+   8 will be used; otherwise radix 10 will be used.  If *base* is not ``0``, it
+   must be between ``2`` and ``36``, inclusive.  Leading spaces are ignored.  If
+   there are no digits, :exc:`ValueError` will be raised.  If the string represents
+   a number too large to be contained within the machine's :ctype:`long int` type
+   and overflow warnings are being suppressed, a :ctype:`PyLongObject` will be
+   returned.  If overflow warnings are not being suppressed, *NULL* will be
+   returned in this case.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyInt_FromLong(long ival)
+
+   Create a new integer object with a value of *ival*.
+
+   The current implementation keeps an array of integer objects for all integers
+   between ``-5`` and ``256``, when you create an int in that range you actually
+   just get back a reference to the existing object. So it should be possible to
+   change the value of ``1``.  I suspect the behaviour of Python in this case is
+   undefined. :-)
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyInt_FromSsize_t(Py_ssize_t ival)
+
+   Create a new integer object with a value of *ival*. If the value exceeds
+   ``LONG_MAX``, a long integer object is returned.
+
+   .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. cfunction:: long PyInt_AsLong(PyObject *io)
+
+   Will first attempt to cast the object to a :ctype:`PyIntObject`, if it is not
+   already one, and then return its value. If there is an error, ``-1`` is
+   returned, and the caller should check ``PyErr_Occurred()`` to find out whether
+   there was an error, or whether the value just happened to be -1.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: long PyInt_AS_LONG(PyObject *io)
+
+   Return the value of the object *io*.  No error checking is performed.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: unsigned long PyInt_AsUnsignedLongMask(PyObject *io)
+
+   Will first attempt to cast the object to a :ctype:`PyIntObject` or
+   :ctype:`PyLongObject`, if it is not already one, and then return its value as
+   unsigned long.  This function does not check for overflow.
+
+   .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. cfunction:: unsigned PY_LONG_LONG PyInt_AsUnsignedLongLongMask(PyObject *io)
+
+   Will first attempt to cast the object to a :ctype:`PyIntObject` or
+   :ctype:`PyLongObject`, if it is not already one, and then return its value as
+   unsigned long long, without checking for overflow.
+
+   .. versionadded:: 2.3
+
+
+.. cfunction:: Py_ssize_t PyInt_AsSsize_t(PyObject *io)
+
+   Will first attempt to cast the object to a :ctype:`PyIntObject` or
+   :ctype:`PyLongObject`, if it is not already one, and then return its value as
+   :ctype:`Py_ssize_t`.
+
+   .. versionadded:: 2.5
+
+
+.. cfunction:: long PyInt_GetMax()
+
+   .. index:: single: LONG_MAX
+
+   Return the system's idea of the largest integer it can handle
+   (:const:`LONG_MAX`, as defined in the system header files).
+
+
+.. cfunction:: int PyInt_ClearFreeList(void)
+
+   Clear the integer free list. Return the number of items that could not
+   be freed.
+
+   .. versionadded:: 2.6
