!!! Overview
The number 2,147,483,647 is also the maximum value for a 32-bit signed integer in computing.[1]
[{$pagename}] therefore is the maximum value for variables declared as int in many [programming] languages running on popular computers, and the maximum possible score, money etc. for many video games. The appearance of the number often reflects an error, [Buffer overflow] condition, or [null] value.
The data type time_t, used on [Operating Systems] such as Unix, is a 32-[bit] [Signed int] counting the number of [seconds] since the [Unix Epoch].
The latest [time] that can be represented this way is 03:14:07 UTC on Tuesday, 19 January [2038|Year 2038] (corresponding to 2,147,483,647 seconds since the [Unix Epoch]), so that systems using a 32-bit time_t type are susceptible to the Year 2038 problem.
