I was thinking about porting a C program to my C64, and was wondering what the data sizes would be. How many bytes are the long, short, and int variables? Thanks, -- Michael S.

I have the "Super C" compiler and can tell you the specs for its data types. short 2 bytes -32768 to +32767 int 2 bytes same as above long 4 bytes -2147483648 to 2147483647 float 4 bytes +/- 9.09E-77 to +/- 6.78E+74 accurate to 6 or 7 places long float 8 bytes same as above accurate to 16 places ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Oyung rob@selenium.cchem.berkeley.edu 27 Longview Court San Francisco, CA 94131
