C is shit

Why have short and int if by the standard they end up being the same size number of bits.


Is the following correct:

char        => 8 bits
short       => 16 bits
int         => 16 bits
long        => 32 bits
long long   => 64 bits

float       => 32 bits
double      => 64 bits
long double => 128 bits

whats the point of short?

Mine is, so I have no reason to write my own.
If someone else's isn't, then they have no bigger problem than they'd have with void.h. Otherwise, most people who matter do have the correct one.
