+The `isize` type is a signed two's complement integer type with the same number of bits as the
 platform's pointer type. The theoretical upper bound on object and array size
 is the maximum `isize` value. This ensures that `isize` can be used to calculate
 differences between pointers into an object or array and can address every byte
