Answer / raja kumar

yes, i too agree it is compiler dependent. But, can anyone
explain, why it is compiler dependent?

If it is a 16 bit compiler, then the size of int is 2
bytes. If it is a 32 bit compiler, then the size of int is
4 bytes. Is there is any reason behind this? It will be
helpful if anyone clarifies this?
