Phix proudly does not support the kind of "maths" whereby 255 plus 1 is 0 (or 127+1 is -128).<br>

You can however achieve that with and_bits() in most cases, albeit limited to at most 32 bits.<br>
Phix atoms are limited to 53/64 bits of precision, however (given the above) this task would need 128 bits.<br>
