Make "int" text here a reference to builtin int class here (appears twice in this sentence), I think you can use :class: for this.

Same comment about making "int" a reference here.

Maybe show also an example where there is no right hand side?

"requiring" is a too strong word, I would replace with "expecting".

"int" -> "an int" at beginning of this line.

Didn't use "an int" there because we are talking about two parameters, in plural. Anyway, I changed this lines a little, I hope it makes it clearer.

I would reformulate it as this variable is annotated as taking :class:int values or similar.

I think its best to separate a concise description of the term from the example.
If you still think it's best to put them in the same paragraph, I'll make it so :)
