New in the latest version!

<<<Math.INT_MAX>>>;

For reference though, it uses the "long" keyword in C++ to represent integers. So on 32-bit computers the max should be 0x7FFFFFFF, or 2147483647. On 64-bit computers it will be 0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF, or 9223372036854775807.

The ChucK API reference uses the C int type, so the maximum value would depend on your local machine (2^31-1, around two billion on standard 32-bit x86). I don't see any references to retrieving limits, but if ChucK is extensible using C you could add a function that returns MAXINT.
