<stdint.h>: Standard Integer Types

Exact-width integer types

Integer types having exactly the specified width

typedef unsigned long int uint32_t
 
typedef signed long long int int64_t

Macros for integer constants

These definitions are valid for integer constants without suffix and for macros defined as integer constant without suffix

#define INT8_C(value)   ((int8_t) value)

#define UINTMAX_C(value)   __CONCAT(value, ULL)
 

Detailed Description

#include <stdint.h>

Use [u]intN_t if you need exactly N bits.

Since these typedefs are mandated by the C99 standard, they are preferred over rolling your own typedefs.
