<p>
The type of a constant expression is determined by the type of its
elements. If it contains only numeric literals, its type is <i>ideal
integer</i> or <i>ideal float</i> (§Ideal number). Whether it is an
integer or float depends on whether the value can be represented
precisely as an integer (123 vs. 1.23).

is an integer or float depends on the syntax of the literals (123 vs. 123.0).
The nature of the arithmetic
operations within the expression depends, elementwise, on the values;
for example, 3/2 is an integer division yielding 1, while 3./2. is
