Sorry, longs are 4 bytes just like ints (except on alpha ;^),
my point was that calling parameters are DWORD aligned on the stack
here is the actual code first the C, then the assembler.

Double, and Long Double are NOT the same.


#include <ctype.h>
#include <limits.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <float.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(){

unsigned char one = CHAR_MAX;
unsigned short two = SHRT_MAX;
unsigned int  three = INT_MAX;
unsigned long four = LONG_MAX;
unsigned long long int five = LONG_LONG_MAX;
float six = FLT_MAX;
double seven = DBL_MAX;
long double eight = LDBL_MAX;
char *nine;
nine = &one;

printf("char %d, short %d, int %d, long %d, long long %d, float %d, double %d lo
ng double %d char_ptr %d\n", one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nin
e);
