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?

Adding my type system is about 12 lines of defines, while it will save 7-10 bytes per type definition written.
people who claim they enjoy writing "unsigned long long", "signed int" and "long double" should switch to Java and write it with x10 the detail.
