integer wrap-around
Integer wrap-around refers to the behavior of integers in programming, where a value exceeding its maximum or minimum limit "wraps around" and continues from the opposite extreme, creating a circular range of values. For example, if the maximum value of an integer is 10, any value greater than 10 would wrap around to start from 0, creating a loop-like effect.
