Long Integer / Int Data Type
How is "long int" datatype used in C++?.
Explanation
The "long int" data type is used to represent long integers. The signed range of the "long int" datatype is between -2147483648 to 2147483647 and the unsigned range is between 0 to 4294967295.
Unsigned long integer is:31356
Bytes used by unsigned long int is:4
signed long integer is:-31455
Bytes used by signed long int is:4
In the above example both signed,unsigned values are displayed along with bytes occupied by the "long int" data type.
Example :
| #include <iostream.h> void main() { unsigned long int l = 31356; signed long int s = -31455; cout << "Unsigned long integer is:" << l <<'\n'; cout << "Bytes used by unsigned long int is:"<< sizeof(l) <<'\n'; cout << "signed long integer is:" << s <<'\n'; cout << "Bytes used by signed long int is:" << sizeof(s); } |
Result:
Unsigned long integer is:31356
Bytes used by unsigned long int is:4
signed long integer is:-31455
Bytes used by signed long int is:4
In the above example both signed,unsigned values are displayed along with bytes occupied by the "long int" data type.
