Description

Haxe lacks min/max constants for numeric (Int, Float, UInt) types. There is an implementation in as3hx Float Int Those constants could be added to Math class or to corresponding base types (like Int.MAX, Float.MIN etc).

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the existing implementation of min/max constants in the as3hx project (linked in the issue) and determine how to integrate them into the Haxe standard library, either in the Math class or as static fields on Int, Float, and UInt types. Consider the cross platform implications and ensure the constants are defined for all target platforms.
