Demonstrate the Working of Keyword long
Course- C >
The long is a size modifier, indicated by keyword long, that may increase the size of a variable during declaration. This program will demonstrate the working of long keyword.
Program to Demonstrate the Working of long
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a;
long b;
long long c;
double e;
long double f;
printf("Size of int = %ld bytes \n", sizeof(a));
printf("Size of long = %ld bytes\n", sizeof(b));
printf("Size of long long = %ld bytes\n", sizeof(c));
printf("Size of double = %ld bytes\n", sizeof(e));
printf("Size of long double = %ld bytes\n", sizeof(f));
return 0;
}
Output
Size of int = 4 bytes Size of long = 8 bytes Size of long long = 8 bytes Size of double = 8 bytes Size of long double = 16 bytes
In this program, the sizeof
operator is used to find the size of int
, long
, long long
, double
and long double
.
The long keyword cannot be used with float
and char
type variables.
