  Setting number to -1 might cause you to wait a while.

    You know, shortly after posting this I did think about whether it’s still working if I just pass the underflow that will happen at some point or if I have to fix something in that case (like subtract 1 after the underflow). I deemed it “too complicated” and would just issue a warning that my code is only tested on positive numbers.
