True, but...

...that's not the issue here. The table indicates the progression starts at int, through long, then through long long. So we know that the value is "at least" an int. Since the target machine is a 32-bit machine, we know that the value is treated in some form of 32-bit value.

What is with gcc, anyway?!? - (jb4) - (52) - Aug. 26, 2004, 06:07:59 PM EDT

What is typeof(0x80000000)? - (ChrisR) - (7) - Aug. 26, 2004, 06:25:16 PM EDT

right, add an L -NT - (deSitter) - (6) - Aug. 26, 2004, 06:30:08 PM EDT

Ain't that a UL - (ChrisR) - (5) - Aug. 26, 2004, 06:34:49 PM EDT

This is why C is sometimes called "high-level assembler." - (static) - (1) - Aug. 26, 2004, 09:11:16 PM EDT

Re: This is why C is sometimes called "high-level assembler. - (jb4) - Aug. 27, 2004, 09:35:47 AM EDT

Actually, that would be a U (or u) - (jb4) - (2) - Aug. 27, 2004, 09:43:22 AM EDT

What about casting the values? - (ChrisR) - (1) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:34:46 AM EDT

Yes, that was the solution I used - (jb4) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:55:24 AM EDT

Re: What is with gcc, anyway?!? - (lordbeatnik) - (3) - Aug. 26, 2004, 11:05:40 PM EDT

I guess... - (jb4) - (2) - Aug. 27, 2004, 09:39:19 AM EDT

If there was no ambiguity... - (lordbeatnik) - (1) - Aug. 27, 2004, 06:51:20 PM EDT

For the next set of standards? - (jb4) - Aug. 30, 2004, 05:29:20 PM EDT

Hex constants are assumed to be positive - (Arkadiy) - (36) - Aug. 27, 2004, 11:32:17 AM EDT

Re: Hex constants are assumed to be positive - (jb4) - (35) - Aug. 27, 2004, 01:15:45 PM EDT

Setting the high bit is processor dependent. - (hnick) - (34) - Aug. 27, 2004, 01:27:28 PM EDT

OK, then the standard should be saying - (Arkadiy) - (33) - Aug. 27, 2004, 01:53:36 PM EDT

No I actually write code based on them - (jb4) - (30) - Aug. 27, 2004, 02:27:25 PM EDT

Ignore them and use my common sence -NT - (Arkadiy) - (29) - Aug. 27, 2004, 03:24:32 PM EDT

I'll bet debugging your code is a real joy... - (jb4) - (28) - Aug. 30, 2004, 05:29:56 PM EDT

Nope - (Arkadiy) - (27) - Aug. 31, 2004, 10:04:06 AM EDT

And so tell me, O Oracle of Common Sence [sic] - (jb4) - (26) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:04:10 AM EDT

offensive foul, ball to Ark - (deSitter) - (3) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:10:45 AM EDT

Rest assured, - (Arkadiy) - (1) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:17:52 AM EDT

:) ok -NT - (deSitter) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:25:55 AM EDT

OK, OK... - (jb4) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:26:59 AM EDT

Well, while the tone is disagreable, the question is - (Arkadiy) - (21) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:14:05 AM EDT

Point missed. - (jb4) - (20) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:25:35 AM EDT

If C were sane, TRUE = -1 and problem vanishes -NT - (deSitter) - (7) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:26:40 AM EDT

Ermm...say What? - (jb4) - (2) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:28:42 AM EDT

Re: Ermm...say What? - (deSitter) - (1) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:37:26 AM EDT

Much like Jewish law - (Arkadiy) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:43:34 AM EDT

So you prefer how VB does it?? -NT - (ben_tilly) - (3) - Aug. 31, 2004, 01:01:31 PM EDT

Point: Ben... -NT - (jb4) - Aug. 31, 2004, 01:04:18 PM EDT

How it used to do it. - (ChrisR) - (1) - Aug. 31, 2004, 01:47:19 PM EDT

Hehee! - (jb4) - Aug. 31, 2004, 03:18:32 PM EDT

Why do you expect hex to be treated differently from decimal - (Arkadiy) - (11) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:32:44 AM EDT

Re: Why do you expect hex to be treated differently - (deSitter) - Aug. 31, 2004, 11:42:16 AM EDT

Man, that's a good question! - (jb4) - Aug. 31, 2004, 12:37:46 PM EDT

Now that's clarity! -NT - (a6l6e6x) - (8) - Aug. 31, 2004, 04:42:17 PM EDT

Nope, it's bad math - (deSitter) - (7) - Aug. 31, 2004, 05:00:03 PM EDT

But, counters of real things don't need negative values. -NT - (a6l6e6x) - (6) - Aug. 31, 2004, 05:19:13 PM EDT

I'd like to add a negative number of votes for Bush. ;-) -NT - (ben_tilly) - (1) - Aug. 31, 2004, 05:20:08 PM EDT

That only works on Diebold machines. :) -NT - (a6l6e6x) - Aug. 31, 2004, 05:23:34 PM EDT

Certainly - (deSitter) - (3) - Aug. 31, 2004, 05:21:51 PM EDT

"Expressive", not "pithy" :) - (Arkadiy) - (2) - Aug. 31, 2004, 06:59:29 PM EDT

Re: "Expressive", not "pithy" :) - (deSitter) - (1) - Aug. 31, 2004, 07:03:32 PM EDT

Dunno. - (Arkadiy) - Sept. 1, 2004, 09:33:56 AM EDT

Wasn't trying to piss you off... - (hnick) - (1) - Aug. 27, 2004, 04:06:40 PM EDT

Interesting assumption: - (jb4) - Aug. 30, 2004, 05:51:55 PM EDT

Hmm...while the datatype will be first reached, - (Simon_Jester) - (1) - Aug. 27, 2004, 05:35:03 PM EDT

True, but... - (jb4) - Aug. 30, 2004, 05:55:52 PM EDT
