#138347 - Not true
Responding to: ???'s previous message

the size (int) is fixed in the C standard

No, that's not true.

The 'C' standard specifies the minimum size for int as 16 bits, but does not preclude larger sizes.

BTW: The 'C' standard also specifies that int shall be the "natural" word size of the underlying architecture - which obviously introduces a contradiction for 8-bit architectures...
