+Numeric types
+=============
+
+This document serves as a reference for all of the built-in numeric
+types which are available when programming in the IDE.  Programmers
+using the :ref:`command-line tools <unix-toolchain>` will have access
+to these types as long as they have imported ``wirish.h``; several are
+defined in in `libmaple_types.h
+<https://github.com/leaflabs/libmaple/blob/master/libmaple/libmaple_types.h>`_.
