    I wonder what would happen if it was a singed long, and it landed somewhere in the negatives after overflowing multiple times?

    Negative forty-eight thousand, six hundred thirty-three bottles of beer on the wall,

    Negative forty-eight thousand, six hundred thirty-three bottles of beer

    You take one down, pass it around,

    Negative forty-eight thousand, six hundred thirty-four bottles of beer on the wall

      Well, silly me, I should have specified that I did my calculation with signed long, though it shouldn’t affect the outcome much given my rounding at the hundreds.

      I like the idea of beer debt to the wall, though!
