  Minimum value of an integer -2,147,483,647
  Maximum value of an integer 2,147,483,647

Visual FoxPro can handle numbers up to 9007199254740992 (2^53) in exact computations.

64 bits = 8 bytes
Largest number = 10 ^ 308    =   2 ^ 1023 -> 10 bits per
   exponent + 1 for exp sign plus 1 for the number's sign => 12 bits.

Leaving 52 bits for the mantissa + 1 for implied normalized bit -> 53 bits
LOG10(2^53) = 15.95 decimal digits accuracy.

  Maximum # of lines in source program files unlimited
  Maximum size of compiled program
modules(4)
64K
  Maximum # of procedures per file unlimited
  Maximum # of nested DO calls 128

  Maximum length of character report variables 255

Other Capacities

  Maximum # of open windows (all types)(2) unlimited
  Maximum # of open Browse windows 255
  Maximum # of characters per character string or memory variable 16,777,184
  Maximum # of characters per command line 8,192

1. If one or more fields allow null values, the limit is reduced by one to 254 fields.
2. Limited by memory and available file handles. .cdx files use only one file handle.
3. If the collating sequence is set to MACHINE, each character uses one byte. If the collating sequence is not set to MACHINE, each character uses two bytes. If the indexed field supports null values, one additional byte is used in the index key. Note that non-machine indexes are always compact.
4. A program module is one procedure. A program or application can contain an unlimited number of program modules.
