#include <stdio.h>
struct verify {
char initials[2];
int birthdate;
};
int main(void)
{
struct verify holes;
printf ("%d\n", sizeof(holes.initials[0]));
printf ("%d\n", sizeof(holes.initials));
printf ("%d\n", sizeof(holes.birthdate));
printf ("%d\n", sizeof(holes));
return 0;
}
Given that the word-byte
In 16-bit computer = 2 bytes word the output is,
1
2
2
4
in 32-bit computer = 4 bytes word the output is,
1
2
4
8
k, I am a newb, so someone plz quickly explain to me why the variable
'initial'
takes 2 bytes, 'birthdate' takes 4 bytes but the struct which is 2+4 = 6 bytes
takes 8 bytes?
