Hi Dear,
I just wanna to know my processor architecture(32bit or 64 bit) through
c programming.
According to me the sizeof of pointer will give the result. Like below
coding.
int main()
{
int *ptr;
printf("%d",sizeof(ptr));
}
If the result is 4 then it is 32 bit processor... If it is 8 then it is
64 bit processor.
Please correct me if i am wrong... (I do not have system to check this.)
Any suggestion or help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Prabhu
