C bigint datatypes

Instead of defining datatypes with preset sizes for big integers in C (like GMP and other libraries do), why not define operations on them for arbitrarily sized character arrays so that you can define how large you want your integer to be?

You could approach the problem of large integers that way. I would question who would need that sort of flexibility. The only use case I can consider for bignum is for big data processing applications and they'd want to do their work efficiently.

It's called C++ and operator overloading.

Why would you want to define how large it should be? Just let it expand as needed.

Part of the idea of c is that it is closely tied to machine languages. Arithmetic on arbitrarily sized character arrays is not hardware supported.

But arithmetic based on structures holding arrays is?

Yes. Do you even have a clue what a struct is?

The problem is, you'll implement your BigInts a way or another depending on what you do with them.
If you want to print them often (in base 10), using base 10^9 in int32_t may be a good idea, whereas if you want to print this shit in hexa or binary, a regular implementation like
