Description: UInt64 is a data type in Swift that represents a 64-bit unsigned integer. This means it can store integer values ranging from 0 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615. Being an unsigned type, it does not allow negative values, making it ideal for situations where only positive numbers are required. UInt64 is part of the family of numeric data types in Swift, which includes other types like Int, Int32, and Int64, each with different ranges and characteristics. This type is particularly useful in applications that require precise handling of large numbers, such as in scientific calculations, data processing, and systems programming. Additionally, being a fixed-size data type allows for efficient memory management and predictable performance in arithmetic operations. Swift, as a modern programming language, emphasizes safety and clarity, and the use of UInt64 contributes to these principles by avoiding common errors associated with integer overflow and the manipulation of negative numbers in contexts where they are not desired.
